From Coral Reefs to Redwood Trees... finally we made it back to the homeland with the babies!
 

We truly wish you & your families a wonderful, healthy, and happy New Year .

Stronger community means more resilience.

In the Society Islands, coral reefs are bouncing back after cyclones in the mid 2000s. 

One important reason is... thanks to French Polynesia's five archipelagos, even when some areas got damaged, there's always healthy coral somewhere providing new polyps for reproduction.* 

Acting in the interest of the whole supports the wellbeing of the individual.

So we say, in 2022... let's keep strengthening community! Reach out to friends, family, and strangers. Ask yourself, how can I brighten someone's day, today? So we can laugh together, create bonds, and heal wounds. Doing so, we are stronger and healthier ourselves.

May 2022 be your best year yet :) 

*Other reasons for coral recovery: water temps, fishing regulation, sediment control.

We've had a turbulent yet fulfilling visit to California for the holidays... 

Immediately upon arrival, the babies (and us) got sick with a bad cold, which lasted weeks. This was our most challenging period since the babies left the hospital.

Now we are all fine again, so much gratitude for our health! 

Some highlights: Sabrina took Kaiana and Naiyah to the Monterey Bay Aquarium; Kristian visited his family in Brazil; we're now re-connecting with friends in Santa Barbara for Christmas and New Years.  Say hi if you're around 🙌

As parents of twins, our new motto is "Ask for help" 😆  So we're searching for awesome, thoughtful nannies to help us with the babies and boat this coming year.
