I recently completed the road trip of a lifetime. I struck out from Napanee, Ontario, to Los Angeles, California – a 2,800-mile trip that I had been planning since before Covid times. I wanted to take this time to think deeply about our overreliance on cars and our love affair with the open road.
LAST WEEK was the official start of springtime here in the Northern Hemisphere, which means spring cleaning for many of us. You may be cleaning and organising your closets: sorting through your clothes, donating or selling items you no longer wear, and re-organising what's left. You may be deep cleaning your home: washing windows, cleaning carpets, dusting and wiping down surfaces, and scrubbing floors.
