Now that things are (very) slowly returning to normal, we are setting out. Our journey this year will take us across Canada and then on to Europe, and next year we’ll set our sights on a different continent. However, before leaving our home in Williams Lake in the interior of British Columbia, we asked our friends, local Indigenous women that we greatly admire and respect, to plant some trees with us. They agreed and also conducted a smudge ceremony, sending us on our way with a beautiful blessing. The fire-ravaged lands of the Secwepemc people in this area now have several new seedlings in their midst, starting the process of nature recovery - a few trees at a time. We were humbled and honoured to experience this love from our friends, and we hope you are as inspired by their kindness as we were.\n
