if you know me at all, you probably know i love being out in nature. i love hiking and camping and anything i can do in the great outdoors. exploring in the fresh mountain air is so invigorating and freeing. though i tend to gravitate towards cities, i also love to recharge in nature. one of the best things about living in california is the close proximity from the cities and suburbs to nature. within a relatively short driving distance, you can be out in what seems like the middle of nowhere, whether it be the mountains, desert or beach. but after a nature recharge, its always nice to go back home.
