As you browse our posts, you’ll find a lot of living here. There are pervasive themes: an adventurous spirit, tenacity, and a living hope.

Lind: A Brief History

The widespread Lind family has a rich history in South Africa now. There’s no doubt about a bit of wanderlust in the blood.

Our Lind ancestors mostly hail from Norwegian-Swedish-Scottish-English descent (Yes, we know how complicated it sounds).  Isn’t complexity beautiful?

Fascinating bloodlines have come together over centuries. Just think of the eyes in our family. These windows to the soul range from icy Nordic blues to rich chocolate pools that draw you in despite yourself. We’re all so different, and we’re all bonafide Linds!

They’re certainly an interesting bunch these Linds. Want enough unbelievable stories to fill a couple of books? Let’s just start with a website!

See our sweet, dainty, petite female dog here? She was called Butch! That’s Lind humour that. She’s in doggy heaven now, but she shared in many of our adventures over the years.

If you’d like to start exploring and learn more about us, here are a few things you’ll find on our site:

The “Oribi Mom” Column

With so much on offer in our new hometown, the adventures started rolling in as quickly as the babies here. Three sons, a menagerie, a little farm, and parenting gave rise to the “Oribi Mom” column in the local paper. It’s published right here and on the newspaper’s website.

We hope you enjoy the journey with us!
