Life · Mindful Miles

Wander, wonder, and evolve.

Away from the roadmap, you'll find me on a trail. I'm a mom to Adamya, our youngest adventurer, and to three cats of rare breeds who run the house. They are the joys of our life.

“To just find something about everything to be glad about, no matter what was.”

Ways I wander

Hiking

Pacific Northwest trails most weekends, and now with Adamya in the carrier.

Backpacking

Multi-day trips into the Cascades, including the Enchantments Core Zone.

Cycling

Two wheels, open roads, and a clear head.

Snowboarding

Winter weekends on the mountain.

Home base

One little hiker, three cats, lots of trail snacks.

Adamya made a National Park debut at Bryce Canyon before turning one, with Zion and Arches on the same road trip. Our favorite camping crew member, and already a campfire-story legend.

Three cats, all rare breeds, including Ladoo, keep us humble and make sure no laptop is ever left unattended.
