Experience

Tpura was a wild and exotic location to grow up but also so peaceful from the disruptions from our technology overloaded world … back then there were no tvs, no movies, no internet, no vcrs, no radio … we had to make our own entertainment. and we did!! It is very difficult to share Tpura experiences with outsiders … because it wasnt just that it was a wild time in the middle of a rain forest it was also the unique people who are attracted to a place like Tpura that made it a wonderful place to live.

Experience

All in all it was quite an expirience. One that really means a lot to me. I have thought of Tembagapura many times over the years. There was a time in my life when I was sure that I wanted to move back. Unfortunately my first wife was not very understanding about the whole idea.
