Sometimes I'm busy traveling, but I try to respond to any messages!
No, I do not accept guest blog posts at this time.
Sure, I'm generally happy to provide a quote as an expert source in your article for topics like travel, hiking, gear, culture, and more.
I've been referenced or featured by many media outlets including TIME, USA Today, NBC News, BBC Travel, Travel+Leisure, and lots of international tourism bureaus.
Sure, just send me a note letting me know what footage you’re interested in!
At the moment I use a Fujifilm X-T5 camera and a DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone, although most of the pics on this site were taken with my older X-T2. You can find more info about the rest of my travel gear here.
I fell in love with travel during a 2015 hiking trip to the rocky mountains in Colorado.
The next year, I did my first major international trip — a solo road trip across Iceland.
My budget was small, so I slept in the back of a rental car for 1 month while I drove 7,000 kilometers around the entire country, filming all of the scenic places in Iceland.

Bali, of course! That's why it's our second home between travels. Bali is budget friendly, warm, and there's so much to see and do. I also love the people of Bali and that's why I married one of them. 🙂
Outside of Bali, we’ve really enjoyed places like Japan, Egypt, Myanmar, Hawaii, etc. There are very few places we’ve traveled that we didn’t like in some way or another, even in spite of their flaws.
Booking.com is my preference for international travel. Their pricing is more transparent and they usually have the best terms.
I come from a very small and conservative town in the US, so I get this question a lot. It's also a question I used to ask myself sometimes when I first started traveling.
Nowadays, the thought doesn't really cross my mind. I don't think a life of world travel is as risky as it may sound on the outside, but even if it is, I'm still okay with that.
I've had plenty of questionable moments in my travels, but I know this: life is meant to be lived. I could never spend my days in an office cubicle. I was given a body, a mind, and a thirst for adventure, and I can't not use it.
If you're afraid to live your life because you might die, then you've already died.
I use Adobe Lightroom for editing photos, and Adobe Premiere for videos.
Yes, I have some of my travel photos for sale, or you can send me a request if there's a specific picture you'd like to hang on your wall.
No, I never use AI or stock photos unless otherwise noted, and I plan to keep it that way. Everything on my blog comes from my own personal experience.
