In 2009, Mark Anstice gave up his life as a millionaire to live with the Bushmen, a remote tribe in the Kalahari Desert. He sold his possessions, quit his job, and moved to Botswana to live among the San people. Anstice's journey is a story of self-discovery, adventure, and the importance of human connection.

Anstice first encountered the Bushmen while on a safari in Botswana. He was immediately fascinated by their culture and way of life. The Bushmen are a nomadic people who have lived in the Kalahari Desert for thousands of years. They are skilled hunters and gatherers, and they have a deep connection to the land. Anstice was drawn to their simplicity and their sense of community.

After spending time with the Bushmen, Anstice decided to give up his life in the United States and move to Botswana to live with them. He sold his house, his car, and his belongings, and he quit his job. He then moved to a small village in the Kalahari Desert, where he began to learn about the Bushmen's culture and way of life.

Anstice quickly learned that the Bushmen have a very different view of the world than Westerners. They do not believe in owning property, and they share everything they have. They are also very respectful of the environment, and they believe that all living things are interconnected.

Anstice also learned that the Bushmen are very happy people. They live in a close-knit community, and they have a strong sense of purpose. They are content with their simple lives, and they do not need material possessions to be happy.

Anstice's experience living with the Bushmen has changed his life. He has learned the importance of human connection, and he has a new appreciation for the natural world. He has also learned that it is possible to live a happy and fulfilling life without material possessions.

Anstice's story is an inspiring example of how one person can make a difference in the world. He has shown that it is possible to live a life of purpose and meaning, even if it is not the life that society expects you to live.

What can we learn from the Bushmen?

The Bushmen have a lot to teach us about living a good life. Here are a few of the things that we can learn from them:

  • The importance of human connection. The Bushmen live in close-knit communities, and they have a strong sense of purpose. They are content with their simple lives, and they do not need material possessions to be happy.
  • The importance of respect for the environment. The Bushmen are very respectful of the environment, and they believe that all living things are interconnected. They live in harmony with the land, and they take only what they need.
  • The importance of living in the present moment. The Bushmen do not dwell on the past or worry about the future. They live in the present moment, and they enjoy the simple pleasures of life.

The Bushmen have a lot to teach us about living a good life. We can learn from their example and strive to live our lives with more purpose, meaning, and connection.
