Talk about feeling like an ant among giants. It is pretty humbling to know that most of these trees were here thousands of years before we were born and will be here long after we're gone. And yet, we are in absolute control of their survival. It makes us feel like we need to be more responsible, more careful, and most importantly, more aware of our impact.

We bought the Casita for purely selfish reasons: the desire to see the world. As a result, it has forced us to consume less, to downsize and to be more careful about our footprint in nature. This has been a magical journey on so many levels. It has also taught us what is truly important to us: our immediate and global environment.

It has also taught us about how important it is to surround yourself with the things that make you happiest. For us, that is nature, adventure, genuine and like minded people, and love. It's that simple. Every time I become attached to some "thing" I need to remind myself that nothing belongs to me. All things come and go. It is much more enriching to have a heart full of love and memories than a closet full of brands made by corporate giants with questionable moral practices.
