In the summer of 2011, Janosh travelled to the beautiful Altai mountains in Siberia to organize workshops. During the two weeks he was there, he  accompanied a Dutch and a Russian group and guided them on several excursions. It was an extraordinary journey which he already experienced on his own in 2010, but now as a guide to introduce other people to this powerful place. 

About Altai

Altai is a mountain range in southern Siberia, close to the borders of four countries: Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China. It is an area of extreme, pristine beauty and listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Altai is sometimes also called the Russian ‘Shamballa’ (Paradise). It is known as the purest and most powerful place on Earth. Everywhere you go, you're surrounded by a breathtaking scenery, such as bright green forests, emerald rivers and snowy peaks. Spending time here feels like a journey into a wonderland, where colours seem brighter and scents stronger.

In Altai no construction or infrastructure is possible, therefore the area is uninhabitable for most people. It is the residential area for shamans who live in tribes surrounded by the natural environment. People say that they possess great cosmic knowledge, which Janosh himself has been able to witness personally.

Because of the high altitude and the high frequency, most people find that only short trips to Altai are possible, as sickness would ensue. Many visitors have reported stimulated senses (even the sixth sense), resulting in returning as a different person.
