adventure
A home for adventure lovers of every variety 🌎🏔🌊✈️
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 ;) 28 replies

Horseshoe Bend is one of those places i wish i visited in the pre-IG era.
the combo of being easily accessible and highly gram-able makes it a very popular spot for visitors (read: over-crowded, noisy, and honestly pretty dangerous scene).
we visited before they built a designated viewing platform and railings, and it felt like pure chaos.
droves of tourists piled in on buses, shoving their way to any vacant piece of real estate they could find to 'get the shot.'
i was fully expecting someone to slip to their death while we were there, and in fact someone did a few days after our visit.
loud convos, influencer vids, people facetiming, selfie sticks and vlogs were rampant.
most people appeared to be checking a box v. really experiencing it:
- horseshoe bend ✅
no judgement on my part, it's just not my journey. things i treasure in nature are tranquility, solace, stillness.
i give it 5/10. easy enough to swing by on a road trip through the Grand Canyon area, but wouldn't go out of your way. 2 replies
