Find your Wonderment: Introducing karibu adventures
Are you looking for wonderment? It’s that sense of awe you feel at being transported outside yourself by something unexpected and beautiful. It's essential to our well-being, as recently noted in the New York Times, but we don’t get enough of it.
We need wonderment in our lives. And travel – done right – is one of the best ways to experience it.
That’s why we launched karibu adventures.
For us, there is a particular alchemy that conjures wonderment:
An immersive experience in nature, which has tremendous health benefits
Exercise and active exploration. Is there a better way to travel? (No)
Exploring those unique and less traveled hidden gems
Authentic cultural connection, particularly with Indigenous and local communities
Expanding our most valuable asset – time (more on that in subsequent blogs)
Sharing these experiences with others (family, old and new friends, and colleagues)
We have launched with three very special destinations to unique wild places in Canada and Italy. Each trip has been carefully curated and designed by karibu and departures are limited to the best times to visit. Our mission is to share the beauty of some of the world’s most amazing wild places, and keep them that way.

A few of our favourite things:
Gadgets: The Oura Ring. If you are obsessed about getting good sleep (we are), we are one month in and have a few thoughts, which we share in our newsletter.
Books: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck. We read a lot of performance, business and wellness books (as well as fiction), and this was one of the best books we’ve read. More on why in the newsletter.
