Just for fun
Canada
My partner and I are exploring Canada — Squamish, BC is home for now. Much of our time is spent out in the mountains and wilderness exploring.
Photography
If you've browsed any other page on this site you'll know my hobsession* is nature photography. I'm making a conscious effort to get out with the camera more — it makes me happy.
Exploring Philosophies
I've spent time reading about Stoicism and Epicureanism. Next up is a deeper dive into Buddhism and Taoism. Ancient philosophy is endlessly fascinating.
Managing Self
My brain works a bit differently — neurodivergent, ADD/ADHD, pick your label. I've started emptying my brain into notes so I can focus on the important things. So far it's working… I think.
* A Hobby one is Obsessed with — a portmanteau I'm rather pleased with.
A bit more serious
Right now I'm not working — exploring and enjoying myself for a bit. I'm looking for work casually, hopefully something in my field comes up. In the meantime I'm volunteering with the Squamish Environment Society.
- Reviewing nest box footage to identify behaviours and interesting observations of nesting purple martins.
- Supporting the Society's Wildlife Connectivity project — engagement, outreach, and storytelling around habitat corridors.
- Attending the monthly bird counts and helping improve data collection, storage, and analysis.
The /now Movement
This page was inspired by the /now Movement. It's a way to share what I'm focused on at the scale of months, not days. Check out my nownownow.com profile. If you have a website, I highly recommend joining.
