Support Nixi
I have been walking this path for most of my adult life. Twenty-five years in the mountains of South Africa, living off-grid at Rustlers Valley, learning from fire and ceremony and the land. Now I am in Costa Rica, building instruments by hand, holding ceremony, and bringing all of it into form through these stories.
There is no institution behind this. No organisation, no salary, no safety net. What you find here — the stories, the ceremony notes, the instruments, the music — comes from a small room in the mountains with a fire outside. Your support, in whatever form, is what makes this possible. It is not received as a transaction. It is received as an act of kinship.

Make an offering to the firekeeper
Lay Something
at the Fire
Give once in whatever amount moves you. Like placing an offering at a threshold — freely given, freely received. No account needed, no commitment attached. South Africans: R50, R100, or R200 is genuinely felt.
Become a Patron
of the Journey
Support the fire month by month. From Traveller at $5 to Patron of the Journey at $25. Early access to stories and ceremony music, and the knowledge that your offering is part of what keeps this alive.

Directly
The most unmediated path. No platform fees, no middleman. Whatever you send reaches the work directly — the instruments being built, the ceremonies being held, the stories finding their form.
