Thru-hikers Launch New Nature Streaming TV Channel for Nature Lovers
Washingtoner/10099983

PEACHLAND, British Columbia - Washingtoner -- British Columbia, Canada start-up, Relax Scenes, has launched with the goal of reconnecting viewers with the raw beauty of Nature.

Carl Miller of Peachland says he started his company about a year ago with the simple idea that being in Nature makes you feel good.

"The sights, the sounds, and the beauty of Nature enrich the human spirit and allow us to truly be present in the moment, away from the infinite distractions of modern life," he says.
Relax Scenes is aimed at "transforming the way people use their TV's to access the beauty of nature." he added.

Miller is hoping to raise $34,000 U.S. on Indigogo, a crowdfunding website that allows people to solicit funds for an idea, charity, or start-up business.

Miller says he realized through his own experiences thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail and the Te Araroa Trail in New Zealand, "what an incredibly positive effect being in nature for long periods has on the human spirit." Miller then decided to start capturing and sharing these beautiful natural places with people who might not be able to see them for themselves. Hence the idea for Relax Scenes.

"Over the last three years, we have been shooting videos and developing Relax Scenes — our nature video streaming service that specializes in stunning static Nature scenes with natural ambient sounds," says Miller.

"My dream is to change how people use their TVs by providing a window to Nature that they can open and experience the feeling of being in Nature whenever they want," Miller says.

Miller says he will use the money he hopes to raise to add branded apps that can be installed on almost any Smart TV, on media players like Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, and Android TV, which is how they were designed to be viewed. "Relax Scenes looks amazing on a big Screen" he added.
