Zion National Park in Utah has been my ultimate dream spot since I can remember. The breathtaking orange- red cliffs, viewpoints and endless trails that would challenge me have made me so motivated to one day reach this spot. My adventure and thrill seeking side has always wanted to save my first skydiving experience for somewhere like Zion. The narrows trail has also been on my vision board since I first started my love for hiking.
What has been your favorite adventure experience?Exploring British Columbia, Canada with my best friend in a van. We said yes to every adventure, lived so simply, hiked every hike we could, met so many new people, and just soaked up every single minute of our adventures in an incredibly beautiful country. Road tripping through the country allowed us to continue our hobbies of surfing, rock climbing, hiking, and paddle boarding, and snowboarding.
What would you do with $10,000?With $10,000 I would fulfill my dreams of exploring all the beauty of nature. I would be able to continue my love and passion for all things outdoors in new places around the world and pick up some hiking gear. I could visit my dream national park and maybe even a few more! I would have the blessing of being able to do something that changes my life forever.
