Journals

Taking risks opened the world to me. I hope you keep exploring! Stay brave and let your curiosity take you to amazing places. Sometimes it's better to do something scared than not to do it at all. 

Field Notes

While exploring Brazil and Patagonia, I've encountered wild animals, beautiful coastlines and dense forests. Each place has showed me how diverse and beautiful nature is here in South America!
