One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacked the grand canyon from top to bottom in winter and saw it go from snow on the south rim to 80° weather at the river. Also, backpacked 100 miles in the Eastern Sierra Nevadas one summer. Currently exploring solo backpacking and travel. I spent 2 weeks living and exploring in the old city of Jerusalem, I could have spent months more!
