Tim Shields is the author of A Curious Year in the Great Vivarium Experiment. After a decade of sick and dying parents, when Tim’s mother passed away—without a plan, a clue, a Lonely Planet guidebook, and only enough money to travel for 3-4 months—he purchased a one-way ticket to India. This decision to leap into the unknown would take him all over Southeast Asia, thus heralding a year-long experiment in possibilities when consciousness is directed by gratitude, intention, surrender, and trust.
Since then he has edited or helped ghostwrite the works of two New York Times bestselling authors, both of whom write about consciousness, quantum physics, healing, transformation, and human potential.
Whether playing in a band, taking improv and acting classes, volunteering at an orphanage in Tanzania, buying one-way tickets to India and Mexico, or attempting to create his own travel show in Europe, his interests can be found at the intersection of creativity, expression, travel, and expansion. For the past two years he has been living between Seattle, Washington and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.
“An honest, vulnerable, transformational travel odyssey into the heart and soul of a man using the power of gratitude and intention. No matter where the reader is in their life, A Curious Year in the Great Vivarium Experiment is a story about the magic that occurs in awakening to the unlimited potential of your life’s journey.” ~ Dr. Joe Dispenza
