Don’t Die Before You’re Dead

The 2021 Adaptation
The Don’t Die Before You’re Dead Tour was first created in late 2019. The goal of this 6-month cross Canada Tour is to inspire and motivate those from middle age and beyond to live their life fully every single day.
The tour – a speaking and book signing tour – is to share the message – Dare to live the life you are meant to live.
Covid 19 came. And stayed. Instead of cancelling everything I decided to tour Ontario; a province I had lived in all my life but never really knew. Leaving June 5 and returning home Thanksgiving in October, I travelled 13, 469 kilometers exploring and camping in my customized van.
From Windsor to the Quebec border, from Niagara Falls to Tobermory, then north around the shore all the way to the Manitoba border, I shared incredible places in my Facebook group – Don’t Die Before You’re Dead.
