About

Hello friends, my name is Tiffany!

A tour guide by weekend and hiker by week, I’m always looking for new places to stretch my legs and explore. I began hiking in 2011 and have been hooked ever since. Starting with small 2-mile hikes, I have progressed over the years to multi-day treks. The reason I enjoy hiking so much is simply because it calms me. Who we are is always changing, and seeing the trail ahead of me helps me figure out who I have recently become.

Now I’ll admit hiking is not all frolicking through flower fields. I don’t fart rainbows and unicorns, I can compete with any lumberjack for B.O., and I have some wonderful bowel stories that are sure to make you feel uncomfortable.  However, I’ve had awesome adventures and hiking has certainly changed my lifestyle for the better. With my stories I hope to encourage you to begin (or continue) your very own hiking adventures.

Although hiking is the main theme of this site, you will find a variety of other posts as well; hiking, diving, wine tasting, cultural experiences, etc. Whatever the topic, the majority of my posts are set in the beautiful outdoors.

A Little About Me

I grew up in Northern California, in the Bay Area. I currently live in San Diego.

The one thing I absolutely will not eat are bell peppers. No, not the yellow or orange ones either.

I’m obsessed with purple, puppies, and butterflies.

I get extremely seasick.

I want to see every National Park in the United States (33 and counting).

I want to visit every state in the United States (40 and counting).

I’ve been to 19 countries. Australia, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Canada, Ecuador, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Maldives, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, Tanzania, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Where Am I ?

I am currently in San Diego, California. My next destination is ??COVID??
