Living immersed in a rural community in Alberta and in a Mexican village for eight months offered an experiential understanding of sustainable development at the local level.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
