Episode 7: Reflections
The Carlsons look back on what it was like living through six decades of Canadian winter
This modern Canadian family gave up all their cold weather comforts and digital distractions to go back in time and experience 60 years of Canadian winter – both inside and outside the home. It started with their house, each week, their own home underwent a massive transformation from minimalist modern abode to cozy, period design.
Without their electronics and modern appliances, their home took on the charm – and distaste – of years past. With their home as their base, they ate, worked and played their way through 6 decades of Canadian winter. Dressed for the part, they tried more outdoor activities than they ever have in their modern lives!
So, after six weeks of winter life, what did the Carlson family love and hate, what did they learn and how will their experience of past winters change their future winters?
