We live in the most beautiful part of the best country in the world with conscious gratitude.


Our goal is to leave our tiny piece of paradise a 'greener' place than when we got stewardship of it.


We know there is room for improvement, so if, when you visit celebration house, you see an area we could improve upon and get a bit greener, please tell us.
