2020 is the year we couldn’t make up if we tried. But rather than lament at the restrictions, I’m learning to how to adapt and adjust.
The only thing constant in life is change, and after quarantining for 4 months straight in my apartment (leaving just 3x total), I was ready to see if a social-distanced trip was possible in the middle of the Indian Ocean.…

Did you know that Canada is the second largest country and first hottest prime minister in the world? Named 2017’s top destination to travel to by The New York Times and Lonely Planet, it’s no wonder why everyone is trying to visit the land of jaw-dropping national parks, friendly faces, and the infamous Tim Horton’s.

“But why Sri Lanka???“ a friend from the U.S. asked me as I pissed my pants with excitement for this highly-anticipated adventure.
“But… why not!?” I replied, reminding her that every lesser-known destination is a beautiful gem waiting to be discovered.

It was the day after the launch and the GoPro family and I (both ambassadors and corporate) were out celebrating in our usual fashion (open bar and dance floor poppin’), and I found myself sneaking into a hallway to collect my tears, because there was just so much to take in, process, and absorb in that moment.…

I once tried to rent a bike in Barcelona and failed, as I needed a national card to open up an account and unlock a bike.…
