DANIEL BEHN
WHO AM I?
I am Daniel Behn and I am a nature guide, environmental educator, and ceremonies curator in the sweat lodge and out in nature.
I work as a host of a hot springs retreat center close to where the Monarch Butterflies overwinter in central Mexico.
Naturally bilingual.
6 NOUNS TO DESCRIBE ME:
- Romantic – I like to sway to music, and lose myself in a book. To feel a poem and basque in a sunset
- Observer – Newish aspect to my life. I’ve taken up drawing and birding and have become much more receptive to surroundings. A better listener as well
- Feeling – I definitely enjoy getting out of my head, remembering to breathe, and tapping into what feels right.
- Play – Play is my medicine, when I’m taking myself to serious. I love to find a balance between deep conversation and keeping things light.
- Mycelia – I love connecting different ideas, people, references, etc.
- Grey – My favorite color😛
