About the host
Hosted by Eric and Lora Benz

Chez (French word meaning “At”) Benz comes from the needle point frame inside the cabin . The parents of Eric Benz, Claude and Jeanine immigrated from France in 1958 to settle in New Jersey thousands of miles from their families. The needle point picture "Chez Benz" inside the cabin is the home Eric grew up in. Just like Claude and Jeanine, Eric and Lora changed their lives by selling everything North Carolina and settling in Salcha, Alaska in April 2019.
