Feeling cleansed and ready to reintegrate. There’s a lot I’m going to miss about this trip. Ceviche being one of them. This experience taught me a lot. I look forward to sharing more details over the coming weeks…still processing. Love you Peru 🇵🇪 ❤️ . . . #peru #travel #peruvian #peruadventure #chicama #sunset #magichour #perú #peru🇵🇪 #adventure #wanderer #nomad

Experience is the greatest teacher. You can read about it and study it all you like but the only way to really understand something, or truly know it, is to go and do it for yourself. Some things are so personal and are impossible to accurately recount using just language alone. My recent experiences in Amazonia have taught me many lessons. I’ve gained some perspective on what to let go of and have reinforced my belief that the masses have it wrong. I’ve learned that sometimes you need to get dirty to become clean and that not everything is as it may seem. . . . . . #peru #amazonia #nanay #getbusyliving #adventure #exploreperu #plantmedicine

Good times in Costa Rica with @air_ninama touring along the Guanacaste coastline. Never a dull moment and never a bad sunset. . . . . . . #guanacaste #tamarindo #nosara #santateresa #malpais #montezuma #costarica #costaricaroadtrip #surftrip #getbusyliving

A lil summary of my lil trip to #grandcayman recently. This appreciation post is somewhat overdue and I’m so grateful for all my friends and especially these two I visited on this trip. Friends for life @joeyshulman and @philippedeslandes Side note…This has nothing to do with nye and regardless of where I am in our calendar I am always thankful for everything in my life. . . . . . #caribbeanvacation #cayman #caymanislands

It’s interesting to me how an old photo can instantly bring you back to a moment in time. Old thoughts, dreams, ideas and emotions don’t ever really disappear. They dissipate but stay with us, just under the surface, like sediment. I took this picture 5 years ago today, shortly after returning from almost a year of living and traveling in an old Volkswagen Vanagon Westfalia. It was a remarkable time in my life and one that I am so honoured to have experienced. I take none of it for granted and feel so fulfilled by the execution of the adventure and all of the paths I was able to cross, not to mention everything I had to give up to achieve it. I was scared at the start. Wanted to turn back. But that eventually went away and was replaced with all the good stuff. ‘Leap and the net will appear’. It’s a fucking thing. If you don’t believe me then ‘authentically’ try it for yourself and hit me up down the road. . . . . . #vanlife #getbusyliving #vanlifestyle #selfportrait #haliburton #adventure #travel

The point is to get comfortable with being uncomfortable, to challenge yourself and expand your threshold and by doing so you can develop a stronger and more durable mindset. The culmination of experience is so profound that you rewire neural pathways and walk away with new and improved weaponry for dealing with stress. What you chose to do with this tougher mindset is up to you and your ambitions but everything is there for the taking. You just have to be brave and seize it. #coldtherapy #coldexposuretherapy #mindfulness #coldwaterswimming #cryotherapy #deliberatecoldexposure #coldplunge #georgianbay #cottagelife

I love how I travel. It’s not about luxury accommodations or Michelin star restaurants. Its about time and experience. I take all the time I need, I don’t rush, I talk to strangers, I meander about and focus on being present for the experience offered with each passing day. I watch the sun rise and fall, I give thanks to the universe and try to spread my joy to those who find themselves in short supply. I like doing it on my own but I also love palling around with new friends I pick up along the way. It’s just flow. It’s real life happening all around and there is no agenda aside from observing and learning and passing on positive energy. As I get older I get bored by contrivance, and I just want things to be natural and authentic.

This was three weeks ago and I can’t stop thinking about it. My father used to take us here when we were kids. It was always the highlight of my summer and I’d be looking forward to it all year. My brother (who did this trip while he was sick…god bless him) and I conspired to take our 80 year old dad on a 60km canoe/portage trip just like the old days. I must say that this was some of our finest work to date. Everything was perfect and I feel nothing but tremendous gratitude that we are still in a position to be able to do this. A gentle reminder to seize the day and do it while you still can because tomorrow is not always guaranteed.

More from day 2 on my father and son camping trip from two weeks ago. Flawless weather, zero bugs, beautiful starry, harvest moon nights and the most amazing company. It’s all I could ever wish for. So fucking grateful that I get to live this life. In case any of you want to do this canoe/portage trip through #algonquinpark it’s called the Barron River trip and it starts at Achray station.

** Family Camping Trip Part 2 ** This was the morning of day 2. After a perfect night under the full harvest moon we woke up in paradise on Stratton lake and before continuing on to the Barron canyon route we pit stopped at high falls canyon for old times sakes. We used to play here 40 years ago as a family and have the place pretty much to ourselves. In recent years it’s become very crowded and we were thinking of not bothering at all with it. We all agreed it was one of the best parts of the day and we found ourselves all alone there just like we used to. Our luck rolls on.
