Early mornings, long drives, warm days followed by cold nights, gorgeous lakeside views and intimidating mountains are the impressions that stay with me after our last adventure to Maglić, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s highest peak (2,386m) next to the border with Montenegro (we actually camped on the other side!).

A couple shots from our latest hiking adventure. We conquered Croatia’s tallest mountain: Dinara (1831 m)! As much as I love mountains of all kinds, this is really the kind of place you will probably only ever visit once. The terrain is rough in my least favorite way – rocks on rocks with a side of some…

When we were in Grand Canyon, just sitting around with our feet dangling over the edge, we had this interesting discussion about what was the most impressive thing we had ever seen. It is true that Grand Canyon is probably the largest natural formation I have ever seen in person, and thus it is only…

I had been wanting to go camping in Big Sur since the last time I visited it 2 years ago. So my last weekend in California, my brother and I decided to just go and do it. We were aware that it was the 4th of July weekend, which means huge crowds, but there are…
