Lightwork had a wonderful winter retreat in our own backyard. In previous years we have flown to exotic locations but now we believe the carbon released on such journeys is not justifiable. This brought us to a local jewel, Chesterman Beach, near Tofino, BC. We absolutely loved it.
We rented a lovely big house right on Chesterman Beach, called Cathies Cottage.
Yes, we are excited to get out there in the water.
