I have a Crush: Ashton the Wayfaring Yogi
It’s been a going on a few years now, when I first saw his picture on myspace, and requested to be his friend. It captured my attention. Something about the toilet and him sitting there with that look, just drew me in! I just had to know him. The energy, the love, there was an instant connection! Ashton was such a bright light, a contagious glow of desire, life, journey, and explorations!
I was delighted when he messaged me on myspace and informed me about humanifesting.com. Inviting me to read about his upcoming adventures! I was tickled with delight! I was forever hooked. I found myself reading about his travels in Thailand, and was so touched by the thoughtful and loving way he journaled about all of his adventures. It really makes a person feel like you are right there. Feeling his hunger, his desire, his curiosities, his will, his ups, his downs, and his pursuit for something more in this universe.
Well one thing led to another, and we kept talking back and forth on wether or not he was going to be at burning man. As it turned out he wasn’t back in the states in time. However, one morning I get a message from him asking me if I had ever heard of Lightning in a Bottle, and if by some chance were we going to be attending! It just happens that about a week prior to his message, we had heard about the festival, and were already making plans on going! I was so excited! I could hardly believe that we were going to be in the same place at the same time!
we exchanged numbers, but who needed them, we had no effort finding each other
While shone and I were at the New Belgium boothe grabbing some organic beer and wine, I heard a “georgette?” and I instantly knew it was him! One of the best hugs ever that day! Oh the energy was fantastic! Hearing his voice, sharing a moment, it was awesome!! Him and Shone hit it off just the same! Shone reminded Ashton of a long dear friend that he has! I was so overjoyed! It felt incredible! and this was all it shortly before we bumped into halcyon, but that’s another story 
. What a day it was!
Since then it has been a magical time, following his adventures on his website, and his myspace. The invitation continues to stay open for us to join him in Thailand! Oh someday Ashton, you better believe it!

Lately I have been hinting to him about getting on twitter. If any of you are friends with him on myspace, you’ll know how great he is about updating his status!! I think he would be an incredible person for us all to follow. He’s all over. Thailand, India, Goa, Puru, Matchu Pitchu, and so much more! He is always doing something so amazing. Shamanistic Teachings and lessons, yoga, journeys into the forests, cleansings, healings, and is always spreading love and light into the universe! And he journals about it all. An open heart, an open mind, an open guide!
friends!
He’s honest, he’s true, he’s passionate, lover of all, and his voice spreads the path of enlightment. I have a CRUSH on this man! Someday soon, I know that Shone and I will get to travel to Thailand and hang out with him! Or who knows where! All I know is that I am thankful each day for his friendship. Whenever I need to do a little exploring in new worlds, I go take a journey with him! It’s been three years now, since he has taken on this expedition of humanifesting.com. I sure hope it never ends. It just suits him so well.

He has created a profile on planet boho. Although he is always out wandering near and far, I encourage you to add him as a friend. Invite an amazing and wayfaring yogi into your life. I know that you will be thankful you did. Say hello, send a hug or a kiss. Enjoy some time with this fellow explorer.
