Playa Las Tortugas – Your Dream Mexican Getaway

In December I had the good fortune to head down to an amazing destination in Mexico called Playa Las Tortugas.  It's about 2.5 hours drive north of Puerto Vallarta. It's relatively remote in that it's not near a big town, in fact the first time you go there you will swear the driver is lost. But don't be fooled by the gravel road and marsh...

Exploring Around Tacoma: Mountain-City-Sea

President Biden... doesn't that sound so good? The President Biden... doesn't that sound so good? The nightmare is finally over.  Yesterday felt like a day of peace, a day of healing, and the first day on the road back to unity.  We finally have a president who is making it about the whole country instead of himself, who is kind and concerned about our children's future, and the world they will live in.  As we start to rejoin the world and take our seat as one of its brightest lights, let's pledge to never forget the lessons learned from recent years.  Let's never forget what happens when we allow our country to be taken over by the selfish instead of the selfless! We have a beautiful country, but perhaps what's even more beautiful, is the democracy that has been built here.  We have been shown that unless we fight to preserve that democracy, there are those who will seek to destroy it.  So thank you to everyone who voted for the Biden administration.  The entire world is grateful.

“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in “The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how I’m going t I’ve been thinking a lot about how I’m going to change life up in 2021 and one of the things I’ve been thinking about is how I can open my mind to new ideas, concept’s, experiences, points of view, places etc. It feels especially hard to do that during Covid because we are so house bound and not out there meeting new people and free to try new things. So I figured why not ask you guys? Specifically, I’d love to be inspired with some new creativity or thinking, so can you please comment in this post and tag the accounts that inspire you the most? Could be a photographer, a writer, a brand doing cool stuff, an awesome destination, anything that you’re into right now. I’d love to explore what you guys share with me. And thank you in advance! 🙏🏼
It’s so interesting to me how different we all s It’s so interesting to me how different we all see the world. What we appreciate and what we don’t is influenced by a million different experiences, our environments and dispositions. It’s what makes meeting new people so interesting to me. To try and see life through their lens. That’s when we open our minds to seeing more beauty and wonder. Or it could be your guide on a tour saying “look up”, instead of looking down! 😉

Radical individualism. It’s a term we need to be Radical individualism. It’s a term we need to be aware of. It refers to the notion that sections of our community believe their personal interests far outweigh the good of the community itself. To me, this perfectly describes what’s wrong with the far right who are following and activated by Trump. They are so absorbed in their right to do anything they want, no matter how it affects others. They don’t believe they should pay taxes to support those less fortunate, that they should be able to have guns despite our children dying from them in schools, that they are better than people of color because they are white, and let’s face it, they think the law was created to protect them and doesn’t apply to anyone else. They can’t conceive that they lost the election because they don’t want to think about having to be a part of our community because doing so means they have to tow the line. They are far too selfish for that. We have to fight for our community, our country, for democracy itself. Not by storming the Capital like they did, but by following the law and using it to bring those to justice who seek to destroy the republic. To move forward, our country needs to see those culpable brought to justice. For too long they have darkened our skies, it’s time for the U.S. to become the beacon on the hill again, for democracy to be the shining light. Let’s hope all of this reminds us what is really important.

If there's one thing I've learned from adventuring If there's one thing I've learned from adventuring around the world, it's that having the right gear can make or break your experience.  What can feel like hell with the wrong gear can be one of the most positive experiences of your life with the right gear.  One piece of clothing that I highly recommend is to have lined pants.  We often focus on jackets and other gear for the cold, but having a lined pair of pants makes a shocking difference.  Whether it's hiking in snow in the mountains or in cold desert mornings I'm taking my @EddieBauer First Ascent Guide Pro Lined Pants with me! Yes this is a paid partnership, but these pants are for real, my favorite pants ever. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a pair, you won't regret it!

Last night was surreal. Ondrea and I walked along Last night was surreal. Ondrea and I walked along a stunning white sand beach, with palm trees lining its edge, which we had all to ourselves, enjoying the beautiful sunset, cherishing some quiet time together, and discussing the future.  It was magical... But when we returned to our villa and checked our phones we were jarred back to the reality by the news about what had happened in our nations capital. The stunning events showcase in the purest way, the totally dysfunction of the US. Armed white men had stormed the Capital Building and had taken over the Senate floor.  Think about that. They did it fast and they did it easily. And we find they were let in! That many were not arrested! That police took selfies with them! I know many people have said this, but what would it have been like if those were black protesters? The white privilege in this country has never been more on display. What does the future hold for our country? How will this time shape what comes next? How will we look back at these events? We are living in a historic time. And not in a good way. It’s time we move to clean this up. Decisive leadership is required to ensure the message that this president continues to promote is unacceptable in our country. His followers need to learn what they have forgotten. Bigotry, hate, intolerance, have no place here!
Most years when you look ahead, you think that you Most years when you look ahead, you think that you have a pretty good understanding of what the possibilities are.  At the beginning of 2021 I'm feeling like that is definitely not the case for me. 2021 feels like a complete unknown. I don't know how anything will work out. From home schooling, to the ability to go to a party with friends, see a live music show, or to whether I will be able to go back to Australia and see my family? I'm finding that with this lack of uncertainty, it comes down to attitude.  Am I going to let things get to me or am I going to walk into the beginning of this year with a positive attitude and a willingness and openness to explore and accept?  Even in the uncertainty there's still great things happening.  As an avid outdoors person, I know that having the right gear can make or break an experience, so when Eddie Bauer asked me to try some of their products I was pretty stoked.  I know their clothing to be fantastic quality but I have to say it has surpassed my expectations.  Even their more casual wear, like this Centennial Collection 2020 Tech Skyliner Model Down Jacket is a perfect fit, incredibly warm and I love the look.  There's one thing for certain in 2021, and that's that I will be getting out and adventuring a bunch and my Eddie Bauer gear will be coming with me.  You can find the link to this jacket in my bio.
