Stephen Kraska
\nFounder\/Educator\/Manager<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n

As a child, I found myself constantly immersed in nature, where I experienced the greatest happiness. The natural world filled me with a sense of awe and wonder that resonated deeply within me. Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to have many teachers and mentors, with the Earth being the most profound of them all. Inspired by these experiences, I embarked on a journey to visit different schools and connect with more people. Eventually, this led me to establish my own education center, which incorporates teachings from various sources. Through this center, my goal is to share knowledge and experiences, creating a space for learning that is accessible to everyone. I am driven by the desire to give back to the people, share valuable skills, and contribute to the well-being of the Earth. I believe that change is possible, and it is only a matter of time\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
