TRAVEL GUIDES FOR ADVENTURERS
I’m here to help you plan epic adventures.
I’ve spent years traveling in North America, Hawaii, Mexico and Scotland - discovering the best hotels, incredible restaurants and epic hikes.
If you consider yourself a traveler, not a vacationer - looking for helpful, authentic information to help you plan your next vacation, you’re in the right place.
You’ll find guides to my favorite destinations along with helpful tips and tricks to inspire and help you plan epic adventures of your own.
Looking for someone to hep you plan? I do that too!
