What risks are we willing to bear?

At every point in our lives, we’re tasked with making brave, often uncomfortable, decisions to fulfill our personal, social, and environmental aspirations: perhaps to live off the grid, open a gourmet restaurant in the middle of nowhere, stay put in spite 
of the coming floods, or defend our convictions at all costs.

Founded in Montreal in 2016, BESIDE is an editorial content development platform that stands at the crossroads of nature and culture. The bi-annual magazine publishes personal essays, stories happening in the field, and ideas that help us find our place in the world.
