Artist Otto Czerepak embarks on a journey of healing in the Costa Rican jungle. Accompanied by fellow artist Julian Vadas and under the guidance of local experts, Otto aims to overcome the cancer that conventional medicine has deemed "untreatable". In the spirit of his longtime mantra: "Life is For the Living," Otto is embracing a holistic approach, focusing on not only the physical body, but the mental, spiritual, and energetic bodies as well. The approach includes an emphasis on nutrition (specifically an alkalizing diet), contact with nature and sunshine, and spiritual contemplation. Both Otto and Julian will be creating a painting each day throughout this process, in order to creatively assimilate and examine the many dimensions of this endeavor. This blog is designed for friends and family to keep track of Otto's progress while he is away, as well as to inspire others, of any degree of health.

We had a great weekend. Another surprise visitor, Julian's cousin Jamie, who lives a couple hours away in Monteverde, Costa Rica, came down to hang out with us for the weekend. We went to a soccer game at the national stadium in San Jose. It was the biggest game of the year in Costa Rica, between the two best teams. Otto really enjoyed going to the game as he was a professional soccer player himself years ago.




The diet is still going great, we both feel fantastic and its becoming an enjoyable routine. We'll have a detailed description of what the diet entails and why in the upcoming blog, but for now here's an example of a salad we had the other day, featuring: lettuce, spinach, green beans, red pepper, sunflower sprouts, strawberries, golden raisins, almonds, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds, sea salt, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. 



We also created more!
