Hike More. Camp More. Swim More.
The importance of finding the things in life that bring you joy. Whether it's the big things like your job, or where you live, or the smaller details that add just that little bit more magic to your day. It's always worth taking the time to figure out what truly makes you happy.
It's safe to say over the last few years, my life has been a bit of a rollercoaster.
