Alastair Henry Disillusioned with the passivity of an early retirement and in search of greater personal fulfillment, Alastair sold up everything and went to live with a small First Nations band in a remote fly-in location in the N.W.T. The experience changed the direction of his life and he wrote about it in his memoir, "Awakening in the Northwest Territories" Candas Whitlock After working in the Social Services Sector for over 40 years, Candas retired at the age of 63, met Alastair and fell in love. With a shared passion for life, they sold their homes and effects and set off on a new path of travel and adventure as International Development Volunteers with Cuso International. They wrote about their journey in: "Go For It -Volunteering Adventures on Roads Less Travelled" In between volunteering placements in Jamaica and Guyana, Alastair and Candas backpacked for eight months through Central America and S. E. Asia, and, wanting to inspire fellow boomers to see the world, they co-wrote: "Go For It - Budget Backpacking for Boomers" Their fourth book in the Boomer's Adventure series is called: "Tides of Change." They were so moved by their four month experience living with a Canadian Pacific Coastal band (the 'Namgis First Nation in Alert Bay, B.C.) that they adapted their blogs into a book, primarily to share their greater awareness and knowledge about First Nation's culture (Potlatches etc.) and history (Residential Schools etc.) with other non-First Nations people. Alastair and Candas now live in London, Ontario, and busy themselves presenting audio/visual shows (book readings with slides) at venues throughout Ontario
