We drove down February 25, 2024 for our honeymoon and with each winding turn, the mountains were surrounding us more and more. There were so many cabins in the distance, pastures, and quiet stretches of road where we were the only one driving for miles. There were very few small towns. Definitely Country Roads! We giggled, listened to music, and talked the whole time, randomly seeing a mountain or rock face and getting excited.
Everyday we found a new adventure (after taking advantage of the complimentary breakfast each morning, of course) whether it was seeking waterfalls, hiking, playing on the swings, snowboarding, sledding, or exploring railroads. We watched the sunset over the mountains each night of the week we were there, and left the fireplace lit all night to keep us warm. First of many adventures as husband & wife!

An abandoned school. Very weird to see writing still on chalkboards, notebooks under desks, and school event posters on the walls while everything is left to decay. It's almost a reflection of the Philadelphia public school district.
Ellicott City, MD
Mini Series: Downtown
This series was photographed in March 2018. Ben, an old friend of mine, was in Maryland for work. He was helping set up and manage a new shop in Columbia. He had never been to Maryland before and asked to meet up. I had never personally been to Ellicott City before, but my parents were married there. They told me it’s a rustic town that I would love photographing, so I asked if Ben would check it out with me. The area we explored sits in the woods with a creek/river running right through main street. We roamed downtown - the bridges, alleyways, abandoned buildings, parks, and the old train station. It was a quiet and mysterious place, like a setting Ben or I used to write about when we exchanged our fictional writing to each other. The town floods frequently and many places were boarded up, but we did find some really neat antique shops and enjoyed exploring this dreary, ominous city.
While five days is too short to properly explore the Faroe Islands, we lucked out with spectacular weather that made taking in the country's dramatic landscapes an absolute pleasure. While people often talk about the Faroe Islands as being very similar to Iceland, Scotland or Norway the truth is it is its own distinct destination with raw shoreline and distinct geological formations that make it truly unique to experience and explore.

One of the most incredible things about Palau is that it is home to an amazing Jellyfish Lake. Not surprisingly, this is one of Palau’s most famous attractions. Jellyfish Lake is a marine lake located on Eil Malk Island. Every day, millions of golden jellyfish migrate across the lake. While they do this, you can go swimming with them!
Swimming with the jellyfish was actually forbidden in recent years, as the jellyfish population was in decline. However, as of 2019, the jellyfish numbers are on the rise and swimming with them has been reopened.
Jellyfish Lake is around 12,000 years old. It’s a remnant of the last ice age where, during that time, the sea level rose to the point where sea water began to fill the basin. But when the glaciers receded, there was no place for these jellyfish or other fish to go. This isolation allowed the species in the lake to develop on their own and become unique (Darwin would be proud!).
In 2005, there were around 30 million jellyfish in the lake, though that number was in decline for many years. By 2016, there were almost none.
Fortunately, there are now around 700,000 jellyfish back in the lake and scientists are optimistic about the numbers continuing to grow.

From driving around Whitefish Lake and stopping anywhere along the way!
Mom and I walked down this road for a bit. We heard water flowing somewhere and the trees were too thick down the cliff to see. We followed the noise upwards through the woods until we came across a very secluded and beautiful creek!

One of our stops was in this milky area called The Mily Way. The seabed was around 9 feet under water and is comprised of clay. The tour guides said that rubbing the clay all over your body helps make your skin smoother. The Japanese tourists were all over that.

Time to head to the heliport for another best day!
This was by far the most hippy, grass smoking place I've ever stayed. Most hostels around the world are just young adults who are looking to tour the world cheaply. This hostel was different though. Some have decided to take residence and have been there for months. If you can think of a movie about a bunch of hippies seeing kumbaya and smoking pot together from the 1960s, this is THAT place. It was actually an awesome time. Just hippies everywhere.
Some people just have that look... #portrait #grancanary #man #lookintomyeyes #focused #instatravel #traveler #dronestagram #dronephotography #neverstopexploring #wanderer #wanderland #wanderlust #passionpassport #beautifuldestinations #iamatraveler #lifeofadventure #adventurethatislife #huffpostgram #igtravel #travelphotography #travelgram #travelblogger #travelingram #landscapelovers #goexplore #keepexploring #lifewelltravelled #agameoftones #worldcaptures via Instagram ift.tt/2iqJhFM
