the Wagon box

Paul buys properties and studies the social, spiritual, and economic aspects of intentional communities and parallel systems. He has visited countless communities; his own holdings range from a castle in Scotland to a petting zoo on an island in the Yellowstone River. He has decided to divest into a nascent Network State. His thoughts on community have appeared on Vice News, in Vanity Fair, and in conversations around many tables and campfires. The Wagon Box is Phase I of an archipelago of properties held in trust and governed by a DAO. It is 20 acres in the mountains of Wyoming with a restaurant, cabins, lodge, vintage RVs, camperized school busses, tipis and wall tents, etc. Two trout streams rush between tall ponderosas and aspen groves teeming with wildlife; cattle, bison and sheep graze nearby. The project has gathered momentum with several events and is open for applications April 27.
