Your guide

Ancient forest with light through the trees Dylan Tierney

I'm Irish, born and raised with Wicklow in my bones. I've travelled through Nepal, Mexico, Thailand, China, and Morocco, spending time in monasteries, forests, and sacred sites along the way.

I'm deeply interested in body-based psychotherapy, ethnobotany, Celtic animism, and the natural world. I speak English and Spanish and hold training in somatic practice, Qi Gong, and psychedelic integration.

My mother is a baker and will be making the baked goods for these tours.
