My name is Tom Langhorne (a.k.a Fandabi Dozi). I’m a wilderness survival instructor & Youtuber from Scotland.
Best known as that guy who runs around the Scottish Highlands, dressed in a big blanket, swinging a stick about, through my series on 17th Century Highlander Survival.
I have been obsessed with wilderness survival all my life & for the past decade I have been delving into how the indigenous peoples of the Scottish Highlands lived, travelled & survived in this harsh environment.
However, to me the Highlander Spirit is not something confined to a particular country and time period, but can be found in cultures all around the world and ages.
It is a spirit that can be rekindled in YOU & All of us. It is desperately needed to balance out our distracted, disconnected & unsustainable modern life.
This is WHY I created this online course “Resilient Roots”:
I want to make wilderness survival as relevant & as accessible as possible to the average person living in the 21st Century.
I want to share a grounded & ancestral perspective of life to help people navigate the modern-day challenges that are confusing our primal brains.
HOW I do this is:
I focus on principle-based learning that can be applied by anyone, anywhere in the world.
I am always taking feedback from the online community to expand and evolve the course to the needs of the tribe.
