Hi, this blog was set up after we quit our jobs and sold our house for a campervan in 2006 in the search for a better work life balance and a greener lifestyle - a liberating work in progress! We took some time out in the beautiful hills of the UK and completed a sponsored walk/backpack from Land's End to John O'Groats before working at Forest Holidays then later as freelance rangers. Select from the Archive or Labels headings below left for an easier scrolling read of our blog.

108 Sun Salutes
The first of the snow arrived today but we still managed to get to the David Marshall Lodge to complete the 108 sun salutes for a local wildlife sanctuary. I can't take Will anywhere though, he blew off during the session in a room full of ladies and put us all off! Will's excuse was that there should be more men at yoga...

All Hallows Eve
Happy Celtic New Year everyone! Another chance to let go of unwanted habits and start a fresh with your dreams :-). We did a Halloween 'Trick or Treat' party at the cabins where I told everyone where all the little traditions of Halloween originate from and we played both new and old games, including; wrap the mummy, apple bobbing and fortune telling - great fun.
Here is Will and I dressed as Druids, well, Will is more of a Celtic warrior (although they fought naked, oh er), but traditionally they wore animal masks to confuse mischievous faeries or non ancestral spirits on their festival of Samhain. They then feasted with and remembered their ancestors and practised divination, being easier to achieve on this night. I tried to do some, not sure if it works yet, I'll have to wait and see.....
