Hi!! and Bye!

Hey guys!

I finally have 15 min to send you a sign of life... I have been swamped for the past couple of weeks.. First job searching. Than packing up and putting my whole life in storage, followed by frantically getting ready for take off to LA on April 10th... then passing all the required test -including CDL Permit Baby!! So now  that I am CPR, First Aid, Leave No Trace, National Park Service, etc.. certified we will be hitting the road tomorrow morning to start our training Roadtrip!

This journey as a adventure travel tour leader will take me all over North-America in the next couple of months. The first 4-6 weeks will be intensive training based out of LA - but mostly on the road. By the beginning to mid May I will be leading groups of about 12-14 travelers between 20-40 years old through national parks out West - mostly the South West.

I set up this blog to keep you posted on my latest explorations, in case you wanna be trekking along with me that is. I can’t make any promises on quality or quantity of communication and updates, since 'personal time' will be very limited... especially during our intensive training! We are leaving in the morning with very limited luggage and an overload on training manuals and binders... I will not have a computer with me so I don't think I'll be able to give you many updates on this first Trek... but I will journal here whenever I happen to have a minute. This trip will take us to San Fran, Yosemite, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Las Vegas, and more... Stay tuned!
