  • The hardest part about Instagram is thinking what to write for every image.⁣ ⁣ Where do you start and how do you finish? 13 years ago I lived in the shadow of these woods for 5 months but never stepped into them.⁣ ⁣ This week, I did. I hiked with waaaaaaay too much stuff up snow packed trails and found a clear spot to lay down my @enlightenedequipment quilt and set up shop. I spent much needed time in the woods breathing deeply of the fresh air and opening my soul.⁣ ⁣ This trip represents a large shift in who I have become from the 20 year old that lived close to these woods. Now partake in them, and am better for it.⁣ ⁣ Shoutout to @strickler76 for the inspiration⁣ ⁣ #dji #campingdonelight #treesfortheforest #forestforthetrees #solocamp #woodstrek #sognsvann #wildman #findyourspurtrail #myoslo #mynorway
  • I made it.⁣ ⁣ One of my first memories of arriving in Oslo in 2006 was taking the public transit. I'd never experienced anything like it and here I was prepared for it in other cities like New York and Paris and even now as Minneapolis continues to work on theirs.⁣ ⁣ Where will this transit system take me? Well so far quite a few places, I'm just glad I haven't had to walk everywhere.⁣ ⁣ #takeatrain #myoslo #solotravel #photoshoots #trainselfie #nikonD850 #myeequilt #travellighter #takeyourownadvice #isuredont #whatsoutthatwindow #publictransit #mynorway #findyourspurtrail
  • Dear Journal⁣ ⁣ I woke up today, a bit chilled. The inside of the tent was covered in ice, that was a surprise. I went outside to walk around and pee, and all of the puddles were frozen. What happened last night? Where did this come from? Isn't the ocean we camped next to supposed to keep us a bit warmer than this? We are going to have to pedal hard to warm up quick this morning. I never thought I'd say this but I hope we hit a small hill right away.⁣ ⁣ (2015, Oregon Coast, Bike Tour)⁣ ⁣ #livingyourbestlife #biketour #frozencamping #semiunprepared #iceinthetent #livingthedream #accomplishinggoals #tryingnewthings #footportrait
  • “You can’t fake passion.” - Barbara Corcoran⁣ ⁣ You gotta have at least a little passion to wander around in the snow on a freezing, windy day.⁣ ⁣ Spring are you here to stay yet?⁣ ⁣ #minnesotaexposure #findyourspurtrail #onlyinmn #nikonD850 #selfportrait #moodyinminnesota #winterpics #visuallyobsessed #treatyoself #frozenwater #winteraintbad #itsamazingoutthere #almostasunset #donorthmn #keepthenorthcold⁣
  • First day in Norway.⁣ ⁣ This is not Norway.⁣ ⁣ Decided to put up a semi-inspirational picture, looking forward to warm and happy times just in case Oslo wasn't feeling photogenic today.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #nationalparks #roadtrip #carcamping #findyourspurtrail #getoutandlive #amazingvista #backcountrycamping #allalone
  • Today I leave for Norway.⁣ ⁣ This country has had a special place in my heart ever since I passed by the Study Abroad table @ViterboUniversity.⁣ ⁣ On my way to some 8am #balletclass, I got distracted and began to dream of travel which I had never really done before. I signed up and left the country for the first time to study abroad in Oslo.⁣ ⁣ Sure it may seem completely unrelated to this spot in @archesnationalpark in Utah. But the sun sets dramatically in both places, people flock to see both of their natural wonders, take deep breaths of fresh air and expand their horizons. The world is full of places like these, and I hope we can all take a little time to go out and find them.⁣ ⁣ Leave me a message letting me know where your next breath of fresh air is coming from.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #breathoffreshair #roadtrip #carcamping #nationalparks #headedtonorway #findyourspurtrail #sunset #findyourpassion #sharestories #beinspired #leavinghome #earthishome #takechances #nikond750
