The first episode of Elsewhere, Slowly, for anyone who’d rather read: why the show exists, and how a stubborn, technical kid who was rarely told why grew into someone who can kneel beside a patch of moss and feel something close to reverence.

A poem for the gossamer-winged butterflies of northern BC, and what such a small thing has to offer such a hard country.

A day on the Northern Sea Wolf, up the fjords to Bella Coola, reading the deep past in the rock.

One bluff here above a marsh, one there in the Ogilvies. Carrying both in the same chest.

For the dreamers and the wanderers.

Inspired by Camus and countless kilometers of trail.
