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

Published about 1 year 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!

Get My 10-Day Iceland Guide for just $30

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!

Happy Friday! Been a little quiet over here as not much is going on. I'm battling through a hurt hip flexor/groin that has basically kept me from hiking since the end of July. But some exciting adventures are coming up that I cannot wait to share with you all! The biggest is a trip to Rwanda, which kicks off in 11 days, for 11 days. Keep an eye out for my newsletter later in September, and you can follow along on social media as we venture across the small African country, seeing gorillas,...

EEEK! Well, here goes nothing! I'm hosting a group trip next June 2026 in the Canadian Rockies! Ever since I first visited Canada in 2017, it has been at the very top of my adventure list. Glaciers. Stunning Lakes. Jagged Peaks. It's all incredible, and I want to help you see it, too. But not just see it. Experience it. Touch a glacier. Get soaked while rafting. Immerse yourself in the greatest mountain range. See bucketlist locations. So, who is this trip for? Anyone! But it's probably the...

Last week, I experienced my first-ever Fjallraven Annual Classic! Let’s just say it was nothing short of incredible! Over three days and 30 miles, I got to trek amidst the majestic Colorado Rockies, learn more about why Fjallraven puts on their Annual Classics (globally), and meet some rad individuals. For someone who just moved to Denver and was looking to build a new community and see nature out here, it was the perfect opportunity for me! If you’re interested in backpacking but haven’t...
