TRAVEL GUIDES

This section is still a bit under construction as I work through years of maps, trail journals, spreadsheets, photos, and meticulously planned itineraries. My hope is to slowly turn those memories and notes into guides, recommendations, and stories that might inspire your own adventures.

I've always been drawn to experiences that take me beyond the typical tourist stops. Whether it's a remote backpacking route, a hidden swimming hole, a quiet mountain sunrise, or a local spot recommended by a friend, I'm constantly searching for places that feel a little more authentic and a little less crowded.

After spending more than a decade living in the New York City area, I've built up a library of favorite restaurants, weekend escapes, hiking trails, and hidden gems that I'm excited to share. Beyond the city, you'll find trip guides, backpacking routes, travel planning tips, photography, and lessons learned from countless miles on the trail.

The goal is simple: share the places that have inspired me, the trails that have challenged me, and the photographs that help tell those stories. And who knows—maybe one day this journey will even lead to organizing and guiding a backpacking trip of my own.

For now, this is just the beginning.
