Luke Jouflas

Luke will explore indigenous nomadic and hunting societies across Central Asia and South America. He is keenly interested in how the developed world’s lack of tradition and myths that orient one to the environment, coming of age, etc., have affected the culture and goals of modern societies. In this journey he will juxtapose both differences within countries (e.g. Beijing vs Manchu People in China) as well as differences between Western civilization and these indigenous societies.
