wanderer writer wonderer
I'm a geospatial scientist, science writer, ocean addict and wilderness worshipper.
I love true stories, wind and waves, living simply, still desert nights and foggy mountain mornings.
If I could have any superpower, it would be the ability to meet every single person on Earth.
