MOTIVATION “Certainly a community which combines the practical with the visionary, intellectual curiosity with emotional fervor, the power to innovate with the will to endure, and which can embrace the future without forsaking the past, need not complain of its inheritance.” Gwyn Jones The good and simple life that we all crave is just a matter of standing up for beliefs, demanding respect and commanding confidence. The driving force behind our organization is to inspire a renaissance of modern creativity. We avoid bureaucratic organizations at all costs and prefer to work with individuals known to be capable of lightning-speed decisions. At Lost Trades we have no time for flim-flam, do-gooders or lollygagers, we deal in the present challenges of the tangible world. Projects that speak to the universal language of creativity drive the inner workings of the organization. Lost Traders possess the ability to translate passion into action and have the combined talent to recognize meaningful endeavors. We are an Adventure Building company. We create, voyage and document the beauty of the earth, in order to inspire would be couch-potatoes to get out and live that dream. It is our belief that even a small contribution to society can be noticed in the context of a vast global community. Our goal is to focus the knowledge of creative thinkers and derive our own artistic vision through film and photography, in order to translate ambition into results. Our ultimate projects meld the building trades with adventure, spirited innovation and outdoor mobility. We live like nomads, free to explore and travel. Inspired and not required to learn.
