spoken languages: English and French
John is a retired healthcare executive with a background in hospital management, mission and ethics.
Celine spent nearly 25 years in telecom and is now promoting wellness based on lifestyle medicine powered by a whole-food, plant-based nutrition. Celine is a passionate public speaker.
We absolutely love living in the Pacific Northwest, with its breathtaking natural beauty, vibrant culture, and endless opportunities for exploration. However, during the dark and damp winters, we look for sunnier escapes. Since we’re not skiers, snowshoers, or hunters, we prefer destinations that offer warmth, sunshine, and activities better suited to our lifestyle.
John is an avid reader and enjoys playing the guitar, while Celine loves to cook, read, and share laughter.
We are proud parents to five grown children and 4 grand kids who are all out of the house.
Our home also includes our beloved Coco, a 7-year-old labradoodle who is incredibly friendly and a joy to be around.
