Three New Leaves is about three important things: vagabonding, minimalism, and the Primal way of life. To say I’m a fan of each would be a little bit of an understatement, but to say that I created them would pretty much be a (flattering!) lie.

I have a tendency to blaze through things, consuming media at way too fast a pace, but the three that follow — the Big Three, in my book — forced me to stop, breathe for just a few moments, and reevaluate my life.
For that, I’ll always be grateful.
