Dante ( Dante-Gabryell Monson ) has been hitchhiking Europe as a permanent traveler since the Paris 2003 European Social Forum.
Dante is interested in the development of alternative lifestyles ( experience of the ongoing transit, presence of festivalist nomadism, and the metaphysics of the hitch hiker - as a metarealist expression?) and nomadic netroots activismoriented towards developing paradigms maximizing opportunities , and not coercion.
Dante is from Europe ( grew up and lived in Brussels , Belgium ), but also lived in Taiwan and Malaysia for about two years.
Dante has been involving himself over the last years with various international networks , such as http://www.fyeg.org ( "young european greens" - note : I since distanced myself from centralizing approaches )
http://www.ms.lt ( thinker : dante ) , p2pfoundation
and as hes extended family, nomad bases and hospitality networks : "dante" on Couchsurfing.com and Bewelcome.org , "dante-gabryell" on Hospitalityclub.org
In 2009 , Dante is trying hard to reduce the frequency of hes re-locations , and converge more of hes activities around Brussels and Berlin.
Dante also looks forward to understand and build on intentional social network dynamics and projects , including Peer Governance , Peer Production and Open Manufacturing , Open Business ; Alternative Currencies ; and Stigmergy.
As a self-learner , Dante is also interested in certain fields of cybernetics and semiotics , and would like to develop one of hes ideas for a emergent post-symbolic spatial language. , for which he still lacks programming and graphic design skills.
In 2010, Dante is working on converging friends to invest in a low cost housing project in Leipzig
http://sharewiki.org/en/Leipzig_project , as a starting point for a p2p local hybrid economy,
and is also learning more about RDF Vocabularies, and interested in defining a "ReQuest" Semantic Web Vocabulary for enabling Transaction Contract Graphs, for hybrid transactions between various types of relational dynamics - see : Fiske Relational Dynamics
In 2011, Dante is likely to collaborate with various groups in Belgium towards furthering alternative finance.

Meaning of Life
Dante believes that the key to meaning is the opening of trust , mutual empowerment , learning and creativity in shared interconnected realities , towards greater understanding , welcoming , surrendering in the moment , at every moment , letting what " can through us " flow.
Hitch Hiking and Life
Dante enjoys surrendering to synchronicity.
//
When Dante can not sleep , he sometimes tries to re-count the number of trips and kilometers he hitch hiked , and tends to fall asleep after counting 300 000km.
Dante has been suffering from a serious hitch hiking overdose since 2007 ( especially solo hitch hiking on highways he knows all too well ) , and is currently healing by limiting hes hitch hiking experience , through staying in places of shared reality longer ( more then two days ) , and using other forms of transport.
Dante suggests long distance hitch hiking ( over 2000 km non-stop , without stopping for sleeping ) as a spiritual practice ( overcoming the illusion of insecurity and of specific needs , opening up trust and faith ) , and as a test practice for couples that are in love relationships ( facing hardships together and opening up to uncertainties in joy and detachment )
For optimal comfort and traveling experience , Dante recommends long term hitch hikers traveling Europe to have as only luggage a small backpack not exceeding 5kg in weight. ( this is usually enough for extra socks and underwear , shorts , some t shirts , extra pullover , raincoat and a laptop )
Dante very much enjoyed the freedom of movement in summer 2006 , when he traveled several months with a 1,5 kg backpack.
