Gadventures 22 trips πŸŒŽ

I’m definitely spoiled and addicted to the adventure life. My travel vernacular continues to broaden with every trip that I add to my world resume.

I prefer a fast paced, rugged venture out in nature (which isn’t for everyone). To truly get lost and experience the little nuisances in a foreign country, is the perfect excuse to get out of your comfort zone and let go of all those preconceived biases.

There is beauty to behold around every corner, if you just open your mind to the unimaginable and really take it all in. I consciously work to be present in the moment.

When exploring in the US, I typically do all my own research and bookings. But when exploring overseas, I don’t want to stress over all the details so I prefer traveling as a solo adventurer within a small group atmosphere. I meet fellow like-minded explorers from all over the world and it, more often than not, is a wonderful overall experience. I have even connected with numerous of these new friends over the years and there is nothing like trip reminiscing.

Over the past 13 years, I’ve tried to knock off many of the hard core treks and all were epic. Truly life changing.
