What is Frugal Science About?
Frugal Science is about helping you rediscover your exploring nature and enjoying the benefits of looking life in a different way.
Exploring is not about a set of abilities some expert in survival uses in extreme events. Not at all!
We humans are built with a natural exploring ability inside. We all can become a true explorer –it’s our nature-, all we need is to do is activate the explorer inside of us, and Frugal Science’s mission is to let you know how.
And confront the Crocodile Dundee archetype.
What does Frugal Science mean?
The term comes from a phrase within a book called “The Perfect Explorer Handbook” in which the author states: “All you need to become a true explorer is a mindful attention and some FRUGAL SCIENCE. Everything else is accessory”. Click the next link if you want to read the cartoon version of the story.
In this context, Frugal Science means (liberal translation): the minimal science you need to question everything and think for yourself. Please contact us if you have any questions.

I love the “not manhattan” cartoon. So is frugal science akin to parsimony?

Gustavo,
Really liked the use of graphics here!
I worked with international students for 14 years. Many from Brazil – Several named Gustavo. So, seeing your name makes me think of them.
Your page is great, and inviting. Mine is always a work in progress, so I might encourage you to continue to tweak yours – We are all continually growing!
Nice to meet you…

Great website Gustavo and great idea. I thought your cartoon explanation about what an explorer is was also great. Have imagination and curiosity is one of the most valuable assets I think I have and I’m open for all sorts of adventures. Looking forward to seeing what unfolds.
