Roving reporter Nicola interviewed Timeless Gatineau Hills from its ancient escarpment in Québec, Canada.
I looooove being a hill. I have the most beautiful view you've ever seen. I have it all day, every day.
I love all seasons and watching how things change around me. Right now life is opening up everywhere. Everything's all green and bright. I feel full of life and celebration.
How my life was formed
I’ve been here for millions of years. Give or take a few.
My life is very peaceful and slow. If you could just allow yourself to slip into the slowest of movements and get a sense of my huge rocks from which I am formed. Then you will know how time has slowly carved me into being who I am now.
Had the change been done quickly, you would see me jagged and rough. But because I allowed it to happen slowly over time, I’ve become rounded and smooth – just the way I like it.
Timeless Gatineau Hills speaks
I've seen incredible sunsets, I've seen migrating deer. I've seen the mist coming over the hills rising at dawn. I have seen millions and millions of sunrises and sunsets. That’s what it is to be timeless.
