Nathaniel Allenby — September 18 • 3 PM EST (all of the above): Topic“The Cycle of Kindness: Six Years, 28,000 Miles, and the Art of Saying Yes to Humanity” Introduction Miss Liz welcomes Nathaniel Allenby, San Diego–based visual artist, travel photographer, circus entertainer, and author of The Cycle of Kindness. Raised on a farm in Aurora, Oregon, Nathaniel set out in 2006 on a six-year, 28,000-mile bicycle journey across ten countries and thirty U.S. states — travelling without money or technology and relying on the generosity of strangers. His life now weaves together geometry-rich painting, nature photography, and live storytelling through Cirque Quirk, San Diego’s highest-rated circus entertainment company. Description: Part adventure memoir, part spiritual field guide, The Cycle of Kindness chronicles castle sneak-ins, Pyrenees climbs, desert crossings, and countless moments of grace from people around the world. Nathaniel’s art fuses ancient symbols and precise geometry; his photography frames raw landscapes with intimacy and scale; his performances blend juggling, stilt walking, and character work to educate and inspire. In Teatime, we’ll explore how saying yes to wonder — and to others — can reshape creativity, courage, and community. Closing Summary: Today’s Teatime with Nathaniel Allenby reminded us that kindness is a renewable resource. From pedal strokes to paint strokes, Nathaniel showed how curiosity and gratitude can turn risk into resilience and strangers into teachers. His journey proves that when we open the door to the world, the world opens right back to us.
