Alfie log

Hi im Alfie living in Alcobaca/Nazare Portugal. 

Born in Canada to Irish Parents who immigrated to Canada in 1967 on professional degrees. Both my parents were Proffesors and Entrepreneurs. I grew up in a real mix of places. Farms, cities. Suburbs I am not really sure which I prefer but cities are not my thing for more than 2 days max. I know that much.

Traveled 50 states lived in 3, hitchhiked across Canada in 3 days, faster than the bus, slept in a hockey bag in -10c cause I had to. Worked hard, not always smart, I'm learning everyday. My first job was collecting cans & bottles for returns at 12. It was so good they started serving Me beer when id drop off the empties. I was only 16. That turned into a career of putting on concerts & events. I still do it.

I live on a hill in Central Portugal about 1 mile from the ocean. Totally off grid for over 2 decades. My farm now is only a short distance from society. Over the years my basic work has been buy and sell properties. My biggest business strength is Owner representation or rather land owner representation. I meet landowners and work together for common goals.

My first political campaign participation was when I was 8, My experiences with Government is long, deep & hillarious .

I am a cowboy that farms on a hill. My first time cutting cabbage I was 6. Picking corn 7. Weeding gardens pre natal I believe.

First electrical panel installation 10. Same time for framing and demolition work. I was an assistant/trainee on those but remember to this day very well.

I am 45 + 10 years old

Joined OSE because it's philosophy resonates with me. My experiences are vast and explaining only confuse or makes people flinch. I am open, honest and wish the best for people. I am also aware of my surroundings, big or small.

Communism doesn't work, equity is incorrect. Socialism is another for of nepotism. Capitalism fails because of greed.

Everyone has their place in society to make it better. A society needs to figure that out first. Yes I would love you to talk history with me. I like learning.

Not an activist or am I the bandwagonny type. Very independent social chameleon, I fit in everywhere & nowhere, same time. OSE is different, freedom, I believe.

Yes I've been arrested but never went to prison. Spent Christmas in jail because of government administrative spite. Many years I created "events" An empty field becomes a spectacle for 3 days. That exhibition stadium becoming a trade show, Something from nothing, that's me.

I will stand up for what's an essential freedom, to anyone with supposed authority. Arresting or insulting me only makes me stronger and wiser. I learned this from experience running an "alt" business. Now everything I had issues with are mainstream.

All my life I have helped people in need. Shirt off my back. There were times I didnt understand, so I researched Laws, regulations, processes, infrastructure all of it, many countries.

Just to understand.

Reason = Open Source Everything. Law/Legal included.

I read a ton of boring books. I can summarize to anyone who needs assistance.My daily is do unto others as you would like them to do unto you. Man's laws, just procedure It's,actually easy.

Life is a journey, My plan is to experience and engage with as many life events I can, good or bad.

So far no regrets and that will remain. Life is a roller coaster.

Do not be afraid
