Adventures
Adventures on this site cover the active, outdoor, and off-the-beaten-path experiences I’ve sought out while traveling across 135 countries. From hiking volcanic ridgelines to tracking wildlife at dawn, I test these experiences myself before writing about them, noting safety, guiding quality, and whether the adrenaline matches the price tag. As a diver, I’m especially drawn to adventures that combine land and sea. This category brings together everything from cruises and flights to diving and festivals under one adventurous umbrella.
