About

The True Story of a Courageous Leap Into a New Life

In 2000, burnt out by city living, Julian Hoffman and his wife Julia took a bold step: they left everything behind and moved to Prespa in northern Greece—a remote landscape of vast lakes, snow-capped mountains and stone villages.

Here, their seasons were punctuated by unforgettable encounters, including nesting summer pelicans, a springtime stare-down with a bear and a winter meeting with fourteen tiny birds above a frozen doorway.

Lifelines is the story of beginning again—of making a home in an unfamiliar place, finding community across borders and discovering belonging in the rhythms of a new land.

It is a luminous reminder to seek life at its fullest.
