Since it’s #introduction time…

Hi, I’m Stephen, and I’m the #author of three #hiking books — #105Hikes #DestinationHikes #BestHikesWithKidsBC — all covering trails in southwestern BC (and a bit of northern Washington).

My day job is in communications. Previously, I worked as a journalist at the Georgia Straight for several years, covering politics, #environment, tech, etc.

I live in #Vancouver #BC — Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh territories.

@stephenhui your books are classics Stephen. I'm an older hiker, conservationist (director of an environmental not-for-profit in Campbell River) and poet.

@stephenhui thanks for the introduction. I'd be interested to hear more about your favourite hikes. I used to be an instructor with https://www.outwardbound.ca/. Now I am a #datamanagement desk jockey as a #GC #publicservant and father to a 2 year old boy. So tell me a tale of scraped knees, busted boots and overloaded packs.

@Samperd Hi Dave!

My favourite #hike of all time is the #SunshineCoastTrail. 10 days of near-solitude in the forest. Scraped my knee on a rusty bridge. Ran out of toilet paper. Made new friends. Learned a lot. Quit my job right after.
