Just Launched! Get My 10-Day Iceland Guide Today!

Published 11 months ago • 1 min read

A year ago, I spent 10 days traveling around Iceland on the famous Ring Road. We saw more glaciers and waterfalls than I'd ever seen before. We experienced untouched lands, soaked in hot springs under the midnight sun, and drove the country's longest F-Road.

It's genuinely one of the most magical places I've ever experienced, and I want you to have a similar experience!

I told many of you I was working on an E-Book/Guide, and while it took way longer than I expected, I'm so excited to finally release it.

It's 37 pages full of goodies, including:

  • A map with all my top locations pinned
  • 10% off your camper van (pays for this guide and then some)
  • 10 days of things to do
  • Top hikes and places to see
  • Campgrounds to stay at
  • Tours to take
  • A checklist of things to do

My mission from the beginning was to help people travel to amazing places and get to connect with nature on a deeper level. This comprehensive guide is a big step towards that.

Finally, both of my trips to Iceland were to celebrate the end of cancer treatment. Due to that, this place means a lot to me and has allowed me to get back to what I love to do - exploration and photography.

So, hopefully, after your trip, you'll look back fondly and have more memories than you can count.

PS: I've never sold anything like this before, so if something seems funky or doesn't work well, just shoot me an email. I'll get back to you ASAP!

I returned from eight days in Ireland last weekend and thankfully only had two days of jetlag to overcome. It was an unbelievable experience. We saw castles, coastlines, lakes, and cliffs, and ate and drank our way through the country's southern half. This was my second time across the pond and I fell more in love with the country. It's an easy place to travel to and has fantastic amenities, food, and more. 7 Things To Mention About Ireland 1. The roads couldn't be narrower This isn't an...

Happiest of May to you all. The snow is melting, and backpacking trips are getting closer and closer. I wanted to create a gear guide to help those of you who plan to spend some nights under the stars. This is more or less everythign that I carry and recommend carrying. Usually, my pack weighs around 40-45 pounds which is under the 25% mark of my body weight. That's a good threshold to stay around as going over it can start to wear you down. Feel free to ask me any questions and I'll and my...

I'm constantly reminded of the beautiful places Earth has to offer. In early April, I had a chance to spend nine days on Kauai with my fiancée's family, and my gosh, that place is amazing. Its unique microclimates, lush vs dry landscapes, and majestic coastlines make it a 'must-visit' in my book. (Stay tuned for next week's newsletter on how to visit and things to do.) But you also don't have to fly 3,000 miles to see beauty. You can walk the neighborhood as spring blooms unfold, or stroll in...
