Wow — can you even imagine what it would’ve been like to be at the above party? I mean, The Beastie Boys clinking glasses with Sean Penn, David Lee Roth and Billy Idol? At the same time?!

Eric Valli documents an alternate lifestyle to our hectic society

For three years, Eric Valli lived with and photographed people who had decided to “live light off the earth” in the United States.
