"In the woods, you don't need a watch."

David Kistabish, Anishinabe

There are things that can only be learned in nature, knowledge that can only be transmitted in the territory. The forest is a place of education and transformation. "She reveals who we are," David Kistabish firmly believes. “It turns us into another person; our minds work differently. Calmness predisposes us to introspection, daily gestures and action. People visit each other, practice mutual aid and solidarity”. David built a camp for himself. He wants his children to experience what he feels in the forest.
