Climbing Mount Masada
The sun had barely crested the horizon when my Canadian friend, Freddy, and I tightened the straps on our packs and set off toward the base of Mount Elazar. The air felt still and almost sacred, as if the desert was quietly breathing before the day began. My boots crunched over gravel and loose stone as we found an easy rhythm, our shadows long and lean in the rosy morning light.

Iron Lighthouse - Coastal Series: Part III (California)
California’s coast does not need an introduction... That’s the problem. It arrives with expectations already attached, sunlit cliffs, endless vistas, postcard pullouts engineered for awe. People come looking for the version they’ve already seen, and for long stretches, the coast obliges. It performs. It smiles. It sells itself back to you. But that’s not where the road gets interesting.

Iron Lighthouse - Coastal Series: Part II (Oregon)
Oregon’s coast does not soften you on the way in. It tightens first. Trees crowd the road. The sky lowers its voice. The Pacific appears in fragments, between bends, through breaks in spruce and hemlock, across headlands that seem to rise only to block your view again. If Washington’s coast teaches patience, Oregon’s teaches commitment.

The Explorer
I am a follower of all things Travel and Adventure, my eyes light up at the discovery of a new flight route to Armenia, A camel trek in the Western Sahara or a Windsurfing trip in Naxos. I sometime discover information about destinations so far removed from any known tourist guides that I cannot even pinpoint them on the world map without tracing the steps of previous explorers with some kind of obsessive desire to find the answers. The thought of the unknown is what drives my spirit of adventure, I leave scribbles and notes in diaries about trips and ideas far into the future, even if they are not viable or I never embark on them, but each idea is what inspires and motivates me to keep taking those steps to find what is over the horizon.

Coastal Series: Part I (Washington State)
Washington does not introduce its coastline. It lets you find it... There’s no sudden reveal, no postcard moment engineered for the windshield. The coast arrives gradually, in pieces... Through rain-darkened trees, through logging towns that never rebranded themselves, through long stretches of road where the radio fades, and the sky lowers itself closer to the ground.

Ski Trips I’ll Always Remember
I’m a university student, and most days my head feels full before I even get out of bed. There’s always an assignment I haven’t finished, a reading I skimmed too quickly, or an email I’ve been avoiding. Winter is when that mental noise gets louder—but it’s also when skiing gives me a way out.
