More resourceful than a sloth, more thoughtful than an otter, the alpaca is like the Dali Llama of animals, with many virtues that we can all learn from. The alpaca is wise and kind, observant and gentle. Its days consist of quiet contemplation, reflection, empathy and gentle interactions with its herd. Alpacas are also neat and organised and have great hair. What better role model is there? This book is packed with alpaca science, studies on empathy, the value of observation, the benefits of serving others, (spitting on others, too, on rare occasions) along with quotes, poems, and quizzes to help you reach a higher plane. With chapters on friendship, love, food and drink, home, and work, learn how best to switch off and incorporate the alpaca philosophy into every aspect of your life.
