Daan Timmers

Lives on a historic sailing ship in the canals of downtown Amsterdam, right across from the NEMO Museum. Although, since the 2020 pandemic, she's temporarily located her family to a secret river location, deep in the forests of the Netherlands!

Our interview with Daan:

Paleo Expedition Podcast

You are here to talk about your paleo expedition, but tell us first, what is your life like when not on expedition?
How do you view natural movement and its place in your life as a movement educator, in your own life, as a parent?
What are your sincere feelings about people’s interest and infatuation with the paleo diet in recent years?
Tell us about the year you took to prepare for the expedition? What did you have to learn? How was the learning itself?
Let’s dive in, and learn about the expedition itself: the mission, the day to day life, gathering and hunting, rest and energy, the collective space, movement….I would love to be a fly on the wall as you tell the story.
I was really touched by you talking about the keeper of the fire. I will read a little passage you wrote about it here. Can you talk about your relationship to fire and water before and after the expedition?
Tell me about your sense of our human activity effect on the environment - how did the expedition influence your view of our modern world?
What was it like coming back and starting “life as usual”
What was the effect of the expedition on your mental health, what did you learn, grow into or start to practice that you didn’t before?
