In this photo, I was…At the Laban Rata lodge, just before hiking to the summit of Mt. Kinabalu in Sabah, Borneo. The hike started off in a rainforest scattered with orchids, but the next morning, it was a freezing climb guided only by head-lamp. But the sunrise was so worth it.I never leave home without…A pocket-sized notebook and a pen. You never know when you’ll get a priceless recommendation or moment of inspiration
My favorite cup of coffee is…The americano from Four Barrels in San Francisco
My most-prized passport stamp is…Cambodia, my first stop on a solo three-month-long South East Asia trip that sealed the deal on my love of independent travel. I haven't looked back since
