ArannaGato

The name is pali and means "gone in nature", a standard phrase used to describe how a monk starts to meditate.

We are a hermitage without property, we rely on people's generosity for a place to sleep and roam (preferably outdoors), food and other living necessities like clothing and basic camping gear.
