It Has Been Many Years
and Thousands of Miles in the Making
And now I am so happy to make it available to you.
To be very clear: this is not a ‘how-to’ guide. It is not a recipe book. It is not a what-to-eat book. It’s not a book of “tips and tricks” and you won’t find a list of rules. It is simply the story of my travels over the years, during which I radically changed my lifestyle and adopted a raw food diet. It’s all there…the incredible physical manifestations, the spiritual Yogic journey, and the euphoric emotional release.
Beaches, mountains, trees, lakes, oceans, orchards and fruit trucks! Rainbow Gatherings and WWOOFing in Australia, food foraging in Hawaii, teaching in Thailand, the Durian Epiphany in Malaysia, Yoga in India, and backpacking around the world, all in the midst of some glorious (and sometimes spectacularly horrific) cleansing.

I love it Jimbro! It inspired me like crazy to travel again. It’s so beautifully written…people who can’t travel now will feel like they are going on an amazing journey reading The Raw Food Traveler. Everyone interested in the Raw food lifestyle will find this book fascinating- I know I did!

Hallo.
I myself is also living raw.
I am going to Australia in the beginning of February and would very much like to know if you know of some WWOOF’ing farms which is biodynamic and where the basic food is eating raw.
Of course its possible to go to any farm, but in this big world its always nice to be with similar people when possible.
Hugs from cold Denmark
Hey There, Voila! The best and most up to date thing to do, which is what I did at the time, is get the book from the Australian WWOOF Organization. Check out this page:
http://www.wwoof.com.au/lists.html. “The Australian WWOOF Book provides details about more than 2,200 host properties throughout Australia. When you buy this book you will receive a 12 month membership of WWOOF Australia, which allows you to visit any of these Australian hosts.”. This will give you everything you need to know. It is well worth it for sure for sure.
I hope you have a great trip!!
Jimmy
Hey there
sending you warm greetings from chilly Saskatchewan (Cansds), with -49C windchill… brrrr!!!!
Sounds great and interesting and inspiring what you did!! Have you thought about presenting your creation to a traditional publisher or to an agent? I think this would be a valuable story for many, not only raw foodists… Let me know and get in touch. I could refer you if you like
Cheers and blessings, Beate
Thanks, Beate! I have not yet brought this version of the book to a publisher. I figured if I wanted to print it, I’d just get it done myself. But if you have a direction to point me in, I’m all ears, for sure.
If you do, comment back and tell me it’s ok to contact you via email.
Thanks and sorry to hear about that icy weather!
Jimmy
You can bypass the traditional publisher and self publish on Amazon Kindle. You will reach a much wider audience this way and get in at the beginning as there are not a lot of raw food related books on Kindle yet (I should know, I’ve been looking).
To give you an idea of how big the Kindle platform is, it’s Amazon’s number 1 selling item of all time, outselling all the Harry Potter books! Amazon won’t take a huge chunk of your profit away although I think you’d need to drop the price to make it worth your while.
I will by your book after payday, looks very interesting
Thanks for the info, Purple Panda! I may do that
Hi Jimmy, I for one, am happy that you are providing this book as paper-less. I’m happy to read it as a pdf – saves trees, saves space in my townhouse and I can bring it everywhere
Looking forward to treating myself to a copy tomorrow (pay day!)
Ciao x
That sounds super, Vroni! I hope you enjoy!
Hey did you live on Kauai, you look like someone I used to know!
Hey There, mere! No, I never made it to Kauai. I stayed on Maui the whole time. I heard Kauai was divine though… peaceful and tranquil.
Rock on, brother. I’ve heard a lot about this via the RF community and I’m ecstatic to finally read it. I’m ordering my copy Friday and can’t wait to indulge!
That is awesome, Gillian! I hope you enjoy!

Hi there Jimmy! I just heard your talk on the replay of the Brilliant Body Summit – I so enjoyed i! I found you so interesting and inspiring…so I came straight here to get your book
I can’t make internet purchases so I’ve just sent the link to my friend so they can get the book for me.
I can’t wait to read all about your travels.
I’m going to get stuck into that organic corn we have here in Australia (when it’s back in season) after your recommending it as an alternative way of satiating hunger/getting the necessary calories in, if one gets over-fruitified by late afternoon.
Btw, do you have a link to the permaculture farm you are currently staying at in Costa Rica?
Thanks, Em, for sharing your feelings about the call and I am super glad it was inspiring! And thanks for getting your friend to buy the book on your behalf.
Yeah…. Australian corn! When does it come into season…. I can’t quite remember. I really hope it is available in September and October while I am there.
Because the farm where I am living here in CR is a private home I wouldn’t be able to ‘divulge’ such info. But I assure you, there are plenty of great organic farms and cool things happening here in Costa Rica in the San Isidro/Playa Dominical area for sure. Here is a great place to start and you can explore the area from there: http://www.fincadevida.com/.
You know what – I’m not sure when corn comes into season here – you can get ordinary corn, but no organic at this time of year. Will find out when next I go to my wholefoods grocer and let you know – hope it’s abundant in Sept/Oct – for your sake;)
Thanks for the Costa Rica link!
Hello Jimmy!
I´m writing to you from the Canary Islands and I just heard your inspiring interview with Audry Wild and would like to ask you about fruits in (La Mecca!!) Thailand, a country I travel very often.
On my last trip a farmer told me to be very careful with the fruits I eat like watermelons and may be papayas and some other fruits as farmers, in Thailand and neightbouring countries, are injecting some kind of chemical into the fruits to make it last longer on the shelve. Have you heard of anything like this?
All the best in Costa Rica,
Pablo
Thanks, Em!
Hi Pablo – yeah, that wouldn’t surprise me, really. With places like Thailand, where they don’t really have ‘organic’ farmers’ markets, for example, the best thing to do is to try to stay away from large scale vendor style markets (where the vendor is not the actual farmer), and get into the smaller villages and find the really local markets. It can take a little longer to track these places down, but ask around and you will find them. That food, from personal experience, I know can be trusted alot more. Thanks for writing!
Hi! Is that tarap you are holding?
Well Jimmy, I have an update on the organic corn situation:)
Apparently there have been some problems with a particularly bad grub wrecking a lot of the crop. It has just started coming back into season here – spring being the ideal time (I should have known that) – but with the grub in action, the supply may not be as consistent, nor as plentiful as in past years. You should hopefully be able to get at least some of it, during your upcoming trip here Sept/Oct – given that we’re now in the official season.
It’s not cheap though – I’m paying $2.95 per ear at the organic health food store.
Enjoy your time here:)
Oh and btw, your book arrived on Friday – wow, it’s quite an opus! I’m going to enjoy wading through it…
Yes it is!!!
Hi”"” R U remember me – I am Bew Sawankalok – Miss U -
