Thank you, @InkroadsRick , for delivering such an inspiring keynote at the 2024 Unama’ki - Cape Breton Tourism Summit! Your insights left a lasting impact! #TourismLeadership
I was offered a wonderful opportunity to deliver the keynote address about "Cathedral Thinking" at last week's Cape Breton Tourism Summit hosted by @CBITTN_ & @DestCapeBreton. One of the world’s “best islands” and with an incredible future.

A big thank you to the ~70 friends and neighbours who attended my "PREDtalk" at @PredatorRidge last night! In addition to talking about the new edition of Slumach's Gold, I also had the chance to talk about my travels over the years, and how they've inspired my writing.
