Anthony and Lindsay began exploring together in Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2010. Long before trail running, paddling remote coastlines, and bagging peaks; we spent our time driving and hiking around Nova Scotia visiting secret beaches, looking at rocks, and ‘lighthouse bagging’.

After settling in Vancouver, we eventually progressed from birdwatching at the mudflats to hiking in the North Shore Mountains to scrambling and climbing deep in the Coast Mountains.



In 2017, we began exploring by sea-kayak, diving in head first with a 70+ day expedition along BC’s Central Coast, paddling from Port Hardy to Bella Coola. Since then we have logged hundreds of days in the kayaks, mostly along the BC Coast, where we recently completed a 24 day honeymoon expedition. We have also paddled the shoreline of Abel Tasman in New Zealand, where Anthony worked as a guide, and completed a 16 day kayaking trip through The Exuma Cays in The Bahamas.

In 2019 we moved to Golden Bay, New Zealand, where we lived until the outbreak of COVID-19 forced us to come home early in March 2020. We explored the South Island’s Abel Tasman region extensively: climbing, hiking, and paddling as much as work and weather allowed.

From 2019 to 2021 we lived during the summer season on remote, boat access only Read Island, near Campbell River. Anthony worked as a multi-day sea-kayak guide for Coast Mountain Expeditions, leading groups on expedition style trips to remote and wild places around the Discovery Islands and Toba & Bute Inlets.

In the winter of 2020/2021 we moved to Hyde Creek near Port McNeill where we both worked from home. We lived in a small cabin on the beach and kayaked most days, despite the weather. We were able to retrace the route of our first kayak trip in 2017 and explore many new areas.

After a third and final season of leading trips from Read Island for Anthony, we moved to Kimberley, BC for the winter of 2021/2022. Anthony is working as a ski instructor and Lindsay works remotely with the Invasive Species Council of BC while completing a Master’s of Community Development at the University of Victoria.
We are taking the winter to ski together nearly everyday and plan future trips.
