As I think about writing this, it suddenly seems silly and childish.  However, (against my "better" judgement) I am going to proceed.

My question is this:  If I were to do a work scholarship program or in any way attend and/or reside at Esalen, could I bring my dog?  He is a beautiful Siberian Husky, very mellow and well-behaved.   He loves everyone, and greets strangers as though they are his long-lost friends!  The reason I am even posing this (silly?) question is that Tundra and I have been practically joined at the hip since I adopted him from a shelter almost three years ago.  I really want to come to Esalen, and I cannot imagine leaving Tundra behind.  Thank you,  -- Zen Puppy

Hello all, I have just joined the group here after finding iThou while wondering what it's like to live at Esalen, which I am seriously considering doing myself. I invite you all to tell a story or two about how you got there in the first place. As someone so aptly said here, "some by accident, some on purpose."
