About Us

  

Hi and welcome to our website.

Do you have a vivid childhood memory connected to nature? Perhaps it was the first time you cuddled an animal or saw snowflakes falling. Perhaps it was witnessing the split second of a shooting star or watching a butterfly slowly emerge from its cocoon. Perhaps it was watching a wave gain height before tumbling with frivolity onto a beach, taking a huge fresh breath after running a long way, or, just simply feeling peace sitting in front of a sunset.

As a barefoot child growing up in Western Australia, I instinctively connected with nature in a way that made me feel part of something profound and magical. I loved the space, the quietness, the mystery, the adventures and the hidden treasures it provided, seemingly just for me! Now, living in Washington state USA, when I get the opportunity to ski or hike in the mountains and forests, I revisit those same childhood feelings. I believe such energy is very powerful and healing for the child in all of us.

We are all still Nomads at heart despite living in a frenetic civilized world. (yes, some may question just how civilized right now!) But being confined to our houses with Covid 19 has made us all realize how wonderful and needed the outdoors is.  I think that is an awakening. Masks have made us realize the importance of clean fresh air and to appreciate the natural cycles and beauty of  the natural world.

Civilized Nomads was formed to bring together those of us from all cultures and walks of life who care about Earth’s ecosystem and the species which support it. We understand that one of the best ways to protect it is by being careful in the choices we make. Individual choice matters as it’s a numbers game going forward.

We thank you for supporting our website and Facebook page. Keep safe and may your life be truly blessed.
