Keep it simple, stupid. ♡⁠

Would you believe me if I told you that nearly 90% of the images on my feed were shot on iPhone?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ A good friend of mine introduced me to this wide lens from @sandmarc and it easily became my new favorite piece of gear! It's small and weighs close to nothing, making it perfect for backpacking and super easy to travel with.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I've never considered myself to be a photographer, but this wide lens has changed the way I capture and create the content that I share; now having the ability to capture 2x wider than your average iPhone makes it a little easier to capture all the amazing places I've had the opportunity to explore!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Swipe to see a few of my favorites by my good friend @followtiffsjourney taken with the Sandmarc wide lens.✨⁠⠀ ⁠ #sandmarc #ForeverSheWanders #shotoniphone⁠⠀

Wild hearts find a home in every place that they roam-⁠⠀ so make a wish,⁠⠀ take a chance,⁠⠀ make a change⁠⠀ and breakaway. . . ✨⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #ForeverSheWanders⁠

#ad | As passionate as I am about a good road trip, I'd like ⁠to focus on being environmentally conscious and a little more sustainable while traveling.⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So I'm proud to partner with @POETbiofuels in committing to a renewable resolution this year, and I'd like to inspire you to do the same!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ While travelling by car is already a great way to help reduce your carbon footprint, fueling your vehicle with biofuel blends like E15 (made with 15% ethanol) helps to replace harmful chemicals in gasoline while cutting smog and airborne toxins caused by vehicle emissions.⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ E15 (aka Unleaded 88) is a high-performance fuel that is made from plants grown in the United States (🌽!) which burns cleaner than regular gas, is less expensive (saving you up to 10 cents a gallon!) and is better for your vehicle’s engine. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So join me in committing to a #RenewableResolution this new year, #choosebiofuels when hitting the road and follow @POETbiofuels or visit the link in my bio to learn all about sustainable energy. Any car model from 2001 and newer can use this fuel and it can be found at gas stations across the country!⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I nominate @followtiffsjourney, @aaliceinwonderland and @kierstenrae49 to join me in sticking to a #RenewableResolution this year.⁠ Save money while preserving the environment, keeping these places beautiful and your vehicle running smooth- what's not to love?! #2020 #NewYear #ForeverSheWanders⁠⠀

Sometimes she gets lost, not because there wasn’t a path, but because there were so many, and when this happened- she sat quietly, smiling to herself- for she knew that in the end, the right one would seek her out.✨⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Thank you for the words of encouragement yesterday and a special thank you to those few that reached out. Someone said it best:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ "It's important to remember that it is okay not to feel motivated all the time"⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ As someone who seeks positivity in each day- this was a very important reminder.

*Insert inspirational quote*⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Memories reminded me that this time last year, I was all about making goals and challenging myself. Today- second week of a new year, I'm lacking the inspiration to do pretty much anything and it's really starting to get to me..⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ What motivates you when you're feeling down?⁠

Good friends listen to all of your adventures and best friends take them with you.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Thankful for this one and all of the experiences that have yet to unfold.✨ #ForeverSheWanders⁠ 📸: @kierstenrae49

I’m not sure if it’s the long drive, the red rock mostly now covered in snow or the magical sunrises and sunsets that make the desert a special place to reflect, but spending the last few days of 2019 here alone in the desert has been something else..✨⠀ ⠀ Solo trips aren’t always easy. I’ll admit, I cried a little when I drove away, I always do and I always wonder why. It’s scary facing the unknown especially going solo on a road trip, but there are so many great things that come of it too: boost of self-confidence, taken out of your comfort zone, feeling of empowerment.⠀ ⠀ Headed home feeling relaxed, refreshed, and recharged.⠀ ⠀ Here’s to slowing down a bit this year, staying a little more focused on the quality of adventure, rather than trying to be in more places than one. 😉✌🏼 #ForeverSheWanders #2020

The best way to predict your future is to create it...✨⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So tell me, what are some of your travel goals for 2020?⁠⠀ #ForeverSheWanders⁠
