Have you ever met someone and felt as if you’ve known them all your life? The kind of person you can find common ground in, despite coming from seemingly different worlds? The very kind that can transition from new friend to old friend with unexpected ease?

In this place, it’s not an unusual occurrence. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Because it’s hard not to like the kind of people who live on the very edge of the world.

A warm and welcoming people with a vibrant spirit and strong sense of self. Living remarkable lives in a remarkable place. Relying and thriving on our own ingenuity and on the kinship of each other. The way Newfoundlanders and Labradorians always have.

Perhaps it’s all that salty sea air that makes us who we are. Genuine and uncomplicated. Creative and spontaneous. With a language and humour that's funny, right down to our bones. And, above all, honest to goodness true.

Or maybe it’s the naturally rugged environs that keeps us firmly grounded. A constant reminder of the really important things in life. Things like family, good friends, and good times.

And it all boils down to the type of characteristics you’ll always remember. And the type of characters you’ll never forget.
