Adventures can present themselves in many forms, but my favorite adventures are those that you know you will be talking about for the rest of your life. Most often this type of adventure is one in which you are faced with adversity and challenge; once overcome, the participants grow in profound ways and a bond is created that can never be broken.

Favorite quote:
“It may seem absurd to believe that a “primitive” culture has anything to teach our industrialized society. But our search for a future that works keeps spiraling back to an ancient connection between ourselves and the earth; an interconnectedness that ancient cultures have never abandoned.” – Helena Norberg-Hodge
