Terrelle
After his family came from Ecuador to Boston, Massachusetts, Yung Pueblo (Diego Perez) grew up in poverty. Before embarking on his first Vipassana meditation retreat, he became addicted to heavy narcotics and was engulfed by anguish and grief during his undergraduate years. He learnt to accept and welcome change in himself, to be present in the moment, and to find joy in both the highs and lows of life there. Yung Pueblo, a well-known meditator, writer, and public speaker, uses a variety of social media channels to assist others on their own paths to freedom.
