Nature can be peaceful.

Generous.

Restorative.

But it can also be unpredictable, unforgiving, and dangerous.

The hills and mountains in Living Next Door to Alice

Some dreams begin within us.

Others are passed down.

Alice’s love of mountains and open countryside is closely connected.

Every enormous challenge begins with one ordinary step.

At St Bees Head, Alice and Jim stand before the Irish Sea knowing that Robin Hood’s Bay lies almost 200 miles away.

You are preparing to walk nearly 200 miles across England.

You can only choose one essential item:

A reliable map

A waterproof jacket

Alice has always appeared strong.

Independent.

Determined.

Unwilling to let others see her cry.

But strength does not mean never feeling frightened.

Not every unforgettable character has something important to say.

Some simply bark, demand treats, chase squirrels, and pretend they have not caused any trouble.

Every meaningful journey deserves a meaningful beginning.

At St Bees, walkers traditionally collect a stone from the shore and carry it across England.

The introductions have been made.

Friendships have formed.

The dreams have taken root.

Now, the real journey begins.

Some people enter your life unexpectedly.

And somehow become impossible to forget.

Some relationships are written in moments.

Others are written across years.

Rolling hills.

Ancient pathways.

Hidden valleys.

Nature quietly influences the decisions, emotions, and journeys of those who walk through it.

Not everything beautiful appears overnight.

Gardens teach patience.

Seeds teach faith.

Growth teaches resilience.

What is something you've invested years into growing?

A cozy library

Some people learn their greatest lessons in schools.

Others learn them beneath open skies.
