My mum strongly believed in the power of fresh air. Even when it was freezing, if one of us kids were sick, she’d throw open the windows to let in the clean, brisk New England air. In other cultures, this is a way of life. My twin sister US Director Dee loves to tell the story of her Scandinavian friends who would bundle up their baby and put him outside for his ‘fresh air time’ no matter the weather.⁠ ⁠ Paul’s connection to nature also runs deep. He grew up on a remote farm in Western Australia, where being outside wasn’t just a choice: it was life. He spent his days in the sheep yards, surrounded by open skies and red dirt. He experienced the familiar—the close monitoring of the seasons, the rhythm of farm life—alongside the awe invoked by the sheer scale of the horizons, the vastness, sometimes harshness of country.⁠ x Jess⁠ ⁠ #koalaeco #morenaturefeelbetter
