Iceland has been one of the most magical and untouched places I've ever been. Spending nearly ten days circumnavigating the country, I took in so many unique sights. Glacial flows, Buildings partially encased in hardened lava, Hot springs, and beautiful mountains. Of the sights I saw while exploring iceland, some of the scenery along the
For me, 2013 has been quite the year of adventure and travel. I am so very grateful for the places I have seen, the people I have met, and the photos I have taken. These things really have fueled my desire to live and grow. Since this year is rapidly coming to a close, I
While I was exploring Iceland earlier this year, we spent a day in the northern town of Akureyri. I had never stayed in a hostel before, so I was especially excited when we decided to stay at Akureyri Backpackers Hostel.

The pleasant people, The small fantasy-like villages, and the dramatic landscapes all captivated me while I was there, and hold my attention still. While we were making our way around the country via The Ring Road, we
Látrabjarg felt otherworldly to me, like something out of a fantasy realm of dragons and elves.

Travel Update Well folks, as of this writing, I have booked another flight and will be traveling to Utah via Las Vegas this September, so expect photos, videos, and tales of adventure to come. As of now, I plan to depart from Las Vegas, and travel northeast toward Moab, stopping at Zion, Capitol Reef, Arches,
Not many people get to travel very far beyond their home town, let alone far off lands, for this, I am grateful for the life I am building. Last week, I returned from a ten day trip to Iceland, full of stories to tell and photos to share. Over the course of ten days we
