The pest I’ll never forget: I awoke to the sound of my bedroom bin rustling

First, I watch Rivers and Tides , a documentary on Goldsworthy’s work, and discover he has built exquisite ice sculptures and stone cairns in my own country, Canada. His work seems to speak to an older part of the soul. Then, I start walking up hills, gradually adding weights to my backpack until I can comfortably carry 9kg (20lb). Continue reading...
