Off we go to Denmark!

After living and working in Calgary Alberta for the past 4 years in the Oil patch, Rob and I have decided to leave our jobs for a year and explore renewable energy, various eco-sites, alternative building types, sustainable communities and sustainable agriculture. We'll be gone from July 2007 to August 2008.

Our first stop is the Nordic Folkecenter for Renewable Energy in Denmark. The Folkecenter carries out research on many types of renewable energies, particularly wind energy, but they have also done some very extensive research on burning vegetable oil in diesel engines. Discussions with them led to an offer to participate in their study/research program in Denmark for four months.

Well be posting blogs and stories about our Learnings over the next six months.

Off we go to Denmark!
