Well it’s the eighth month of the year and so far this year I have legitimately thought I was going to live in eight different cities (one of them in a different country). I guess that’s 2020 for you 😂 - 📷: @kay_bacon (at Lake Pleasant - Phoenix, AZ) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDyzFpxACgn/?igshid=20pyztvqgu5d

One of my favorite days from a recent roadtrip with @noahawaii. We didn’t go to a spectacular viewpoint, but we went out to try to find a very specific spot. We passed through quite a few cool places like this along the way, and eventually made it to our destination with almost no trouble, despite it being a very difficult place to find. @noahawaii did suchhhhh a good job researching and planning this day 👌🏼 and it’s so fun when everything works out so perfectly. - 📹: @noahawaii (at Moab, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDpZugwgZCW/?igshid=p8o9ah25189u

I’m going to be spending a lot more time around here and I’m pretty excited about that. (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDl8smgAtnu/?igshid=7ire78oet5pu

Pretending to be a bride for @kay_bacon. Katherine is one of my best friends and has been a wedding photographer for years...and she’s now offering adventure elopements! If any of you are getting married and are interested in an adventure elopement (or a regular wedding), Katherine is your girl. I know for a fact that Katherine will make you look good because I am the most awkward and never look good in portraits except when Katherine takes them 🤣 - 📷: @kay_bacon (at Garden of the Gods Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDFp6L0gn88/?igshid=1odbjzqbcsw

This week was yet another reminder that I don’t need to travel across the world to find incredible places. (at California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_3xy_Aa7a/?igshid=lez8ns6ik5q9

It’s been a long time coming, but I can finally call Colorado HOME <3 - 📷: @kay_bacon (at Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6jUCdAJ_R/?igshid=sjgotxgkmtnm

For the past few years, I’ve had my schedule lined up months in advance, so I always had to turn down last minute plans. Of course I have absolutely nothing planned anymore and lately I’ve been able to say yes to a whole lot of exciting last minute things. I’m learning that there’s definitely something to be said for having this kind of flexibility. Can’t wait to share where I’m en route to now!

We should be getting ready for our annual summer Europe roadtrip right now. But apparently some people don’t know how to use masks and social distance here in the US, so it doesn’t look like we’ll be traveling anytime soon. So here’s a throwback from last summer. In the meantime, please be safe and don’t be selfish. (at Kozjak Lake - Blizansko) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCl6TorgQCM/?igshid=1n9tuc10wdxt

Hello, happy Friday, and please wear your masks this weekend (and next week, and for the foreseeable future). That is all for now ✌🏼 - 📷: @kay_bacon (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCd7uRnA_YX/?igshid=vvng9wnl7w8p

Life has been crazy lately and I haven’t spent much time on social media. More on that later, but for now hi, hope you’re doing well! And here’s a picture from the good old days, when I was allowed in Canada. (at Moraine Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCG0iTYgA8H/?igshid=w5773nd9qxdh

Pre-quarantine, catching up on life in a natural hot spring infinity pool with @kay_bacon. We were supposed to be in Havasupai right now. But after seeing what has happened with Navajo nation, and especially considering the only way to get out of Supai village is an 8 mile uphill hike or a helicopter, I’m very, very glad we aren’t going. However, with restrictions starting to ease, we managed to come up with a pretty cool backup plan. And I am so glad we are finally going to get to see each other (while taking precautions) after months! I had COVID symptoms at the beginning of quarantine, so I spent the first few weeks completely isolated in a basement and didn’t see anyone in person. I am so, so happy and grateful to be able to see friends again. I hope you are staying safe, and if you’re able to do more because restrictions have eased where you are, I hope you’re enjoying it! If you’re still at home because of restrictions and/or because you still don’t feel safe leaving, hang in there. (at Colorado River) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAxyJ7AAOLS/?igshid=dw65hyb7fd6e
