Most people don’t know I used to be a Travel Ambassador for a credit card co. The role combined 3 of my biggest passions: Photography, traveling & working the cc points system. I wasn’t paid to travel, but b/c I was earning the majority of my flights, hotels, and transpo via reward points, they hired me to document my journeys around the world. I’ve been to 49 countries, gravitating to outdoor adventures & nature. I’m a hiker, biker, skier, climber, and surfer. /adventure is a home for adrenaline junkies & nature lovers. I’ve been bad about promoting it, but that ends today. I’ll be sharing pics + stories of places I’ve been fortunate to visit. Hopefully others will post theirs too so I can add some new spots to my bucket list. Will also mix in travel tips + gear + cc hacks + other fun stuff. I’ll kick it off tomorrow, but for now, enjoy this pic of the most picturesque football pitch on the planet located in the Lofoten Islands. If you squint really hard maybe you can see us ;)

i’ve been watching a lot of mini docs about how Vail ruined winter mountain sports. over-pricing. over-crowding. over-expansion. i went to school in CO back when the mountains were empty-ish and it’s been pretty jarring to watch the private equitization of our shared natural environment. it makes me feel especially appreciative for the access we have to a couple of really special smaller mountains in Tahoe and Japan via friends who live in the area. late last week - in the middle of the holiday rush - i was able to snag front-row parking at our regular resort, allowing me to get two full runs on skis before a quick gear change to sneak in a few more practice runs on the snowboard. in and out in < 4 hours so i could carry on with my day. we also managed to get first chair on opening day with 2 ft of powder. i will never take for granted the privileges i’ve been afforded, but wish it didn’t have to be this way and am just grateful that at least surfing is still free. the mountains - just like the ocean - should be accessible to all. https://youtu.be/0bfD4NiiMfo?si=s23Jx2qhnml6IFtY

Any recommendations for Yosemite? I'm finally heading there next week for the first(-ish*) time after about a decade of living in California. I know it's not possible to see everything, so would appreciate if you have any favorite hikes I should prioritize. Also welcome any coffee + food recommendations nearby. *First visited in 2012, but had to leave the park due to an emergency right after driving in. I get to be there for four days this time.

📍 Lake Powell, summer 2025 i broke my streak of weekly posts so will be sharing some throwbacks until i get back on it. missing the ☀️ with these darker nights so here’s a summer adventure highlight barely scratched the surface of this expansive lake on the border of Utah / Arizona. you need multiple days to fully explore all the side canyons and we only had the boat for an afternoon. it was stunning to see the combination of monument valley-like towering mesas and buttes next to sparkling water you could cool off in the southwest USA has so much to offer and vegas is a great hub for wknd trips ☺️ curious if anyone else has done multiple days on the lake? niche fun fact: this location is in range of the elusive “wave” lottery so you can stay here while attempting to get one of 20 individual day passes. i did not win one 🥲
