So Lucky

I am so lucky to have grown up always surrounded by nature on holidays, summer vacations, and weekends. Most summers were spent up at our grandfather's cabin (he built) on Crystal Lake in the Cariboo Interior. My father's sisters and their children (our cousins) would stay at the cabin in summer. We got to swim, canoe, fish, hike, play games and cards every day.




Ever since I was a toddler, my father always took us to parks on weekends and camping several times a year. I love being outdoors. It is so calming and beautiful. British Columbia is my backyard. I guess that is why I have such a strong desire to preserve and protect the outdoors. Why I am always conscience of my ecological footprint on the planet.
