Mark Sparks

Fantasy Farm

After a career in the business world, I reconnected to myself and others through massage and yoga which led me to more spirituality and nature. After 12 years practicing as a massage therapist and yoga teacher, I left the city to renovate an abandoned pig sty to convert it into a community space for LGBTQI people where permaculture and well being practices could be lived and experienced.

I am a gay man that has moved through life seeking experience and more connection to oneself. I am franco British, lived most of my life in Paris, France. I have spent many years travelling extensively and living part time in India before moving to rural France to make my eco sanctuary come to life and exist.

Primary interests: yoga, massage, eco building, forest gardening
