I live on small, heavily forested Pender Island, a 2-1/2 hour ferry ride from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. We have no apartment buildings, no streetlights or stop lights, so our light pollution is zero. The changing moon is brightly visible on the ocean and in our night sky. I am a moon watcher and long-distance hiker so imagine my pleasure to meet kindred spirits. Not sure if I can put my hat in the ring for a giveaway from so far away but here’s hoping!
Great interview and always good to hear from Rob! This reminds me that in Sri Lanka each full moon is a public holiday, and I thought this was a wonderful idea. I’d love to do a moonwalk with my Mum, as she loves the moon and stars and lives in rural Finland so there is no light pollution, and I’ve seen absolutely huge moons in the summer there. Otherwise, I think it would be interesting to do a walk with Tristan Gooley, the natural navigator, and learn about navigating using the moon, which could come in handy. And maybe a witch, to know more about the magical aspect of the moon. And a biodynamic farmer to understand about the moon’s impact on growing. There are so many aspects to the moon which make it so fascinating! (And Rob of course to hear more about his book!)
