CURRENT MISSION

To discover life and to live it fully.

PHILOSOPHY

Our culture has its priorities turned around. We are not fans of our uber-materialistic surroundings that encourage unending economic growth as the holy grail. Progress must be made through simple living, appreciating each day, friendship, savouring the earth and all that it has to offer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We have driven across Canada a couple of times. One of these was in the middle of winter with snow-banks taller than our car. We went through a mountain pass in a blizzard through the Rocky Mountains and an avalanche occurred less than an hour after we went through.
