We'd love the opportunity to see any natural environment, forest, or park! Seeing Yellowstone, Acadia, and Glacier National Parks would be a dream. Crater Lake in Oregon is on the list! We'd also be thrilled to see natural cold and/or hot springs. Any location that helps preserve our forests are of interest to us! Supporting conservation efforts are extremely important — One of our goals is to support organizations with conservation and wildlife rehab efforts at the forefront of their mission.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?One of my favorite adventures was when I studied in Nicaragua — I had the opportunity to participate in a 4-hour hike deep into the jungle. We also reached the top of some active volcanoes and used a wooden board to slide down the mountainside. It was incredible.
What would you do with $10,000?My spouse and I would put the money toward acquiring land so we can build a life together! Right now, we’re barely making ends meet. Winning this competition would help us significantly!
