Kim Letson
BIO
Biography

With a Canadian military father, Kim spent her childhood living in various parts of Canada and Europe. She and her husband, Mike Simpson, served twenty-year careers in the Canadian Forces. Retiring in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, they focussed on raising their two sons, Brian and Kyle, pursued second careers as professional ski patrollers on nearby Mount Washington and for a time owned a sea kayaking company based on the west coast of Vancouver Island.

Since Mike’s death in 2007, seeking solace and following her nomadic spirit, Kim has indulged her passion for off-the-beaten-path international travel. When at home, she walks with friends, writes and enjoys her unconventional garden.
