“Do what you love (hike), and you’ll never work a day that you take off from work.” Is that how that goes? . . #forceofnature #optoutside #sheexplores #girlgetoutside #sweatydirtyhappy #womenwhowander #goeast #womenwhohike #wwhmember #allwomenalltrails #hikenj #appalachiantrail #njspots #hikingdogsofinstagram #hikingwithdogs #rescuedogsofinstagram
Photographic evidence of the biggest disappointment my parents have felt in either of their children. @krissyfolk, be free to top this. . . Thanks for the bow style, @lo_kling! . . #goblue #universityofmichigan #michiganfootball #puremichigan #fallinlovewithfall #falldays #football #footballseason
Squirrel spotting is BACK ON. 🐿 . . Val is spayed, coneless, and ready for any and all adventures/play dates/snuggles. . . #adoptadog #rescuedogsrule #rescuedisthebestbreed #rescuedogsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogoftheday #adventuredog #outdoorpups #dogsonadventures #dailyfluff

Not your typical apple picking weather, nor is this your typical apple picking pose. But I wanted apple crisp and a distraction, what can I say? 🍎🍏 . . #pahappysnaps #fallinPA #optoutside #fall #linvilla #linvillaorchards #applepickingseason #flannel (only sort of)
Hiding another picture of my dog on my feed under the premise of featuring Paul as my #mcm 😂 Suddenly he likes hiking a lot more because of Val and I am here for it. It’s also making me explore more trails in the Philadelphia area that I wrote off previously! Bonus: this one has a giant fenced in dog park near it. 💕 . . 📌 This photo was taken on Lenape & Delaware land. . . #pahappysnaps #fallinPA #thegreatoutdogs #adventuredogs #rescuedogsrule #rescuedisthebestbreed #hikingdogsofinstagram #travelsandchill #exploretheoutdoors #followyourfeet #optoutside #idhikethat
Today is National Public Lands Day! I wasn’t here today, but @remember_the_adamo texted me with this photo and I instantly wanted to go back. 😍💔 I’ve been loving getting outside for the past few years, but I fell really hard for it in Utah. I feel like I just can’t get enough! . . I hope you get a chance to get outside today! As I’m doing so lately, I’m trying to remember to keep in mind that it in North America it wasn’t all “our public land” in the beginning. So take a second to check out [native-land.ca] next time you’re on an adventure and check out whose land you’re on. 👍🏻 . . 📌 This photo was taken on Ute land. . . #travelblogger  #womenwhoexplore #thetravelwomen #travelsandchill #girlgetoutside #exploretheoutdoors #followyourfeet #womenwhohike #girlsvsglobe #beutahful #findyourpark #sheexplores #ourpubliclands #nationalparkgeek #canyonlandsnps #npld #nationalpubliclandsday
Check out these high quality photos, am I right? This #fbf is brought to you by the London Olympics (not really but pretty much). Actually, it’s brought to you by a new podcast episode with @darcisays! . . It’s the perfect episode for your Friday. This is a really fun episode because we’re talking all things Olympics - bucket lists, fun facts, and birthday parties all included! So, have you been to any Olympic sites? Stadiums, training centers, etc? Have you BEEN to the Olympics? Tell us all about it! . . The #linkinbio will take you to where you need to be. If you enjoy it and have a minute to rate and/or review where you listen to podcasts I would be super appreciative! . . #sunshinechasers #shepodcasts #podcastersofinstagram #dreamersanddoers #womensupportwomen #travelblogger  #womenwhoexplore #thetravelwomen #travelsandchill #girlsvsglobe #teamUSA #London2012
Will you just look at this face? . . Val loves hiking, which is super exciting. But she also refuses to drink water while we’re on the trail! How often do you give your adventure pup water? I know temperature will play a big role in this but I’m just curious. She’s a binge drinker and drinks a whole bowl of water a couple of times a day. 🤷🏼‍♀️ . . #optoutside #pahappysnaps #adoptadog #rescuedogsrule #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedisthebestbreed #dogsofinstagram #dogoftheday #adventuredog #outdoorpups #hikingdogsofinsta #thegreatoutdogs #dogsonadventures
To use the phrase “work is crazy right now” would be a hysterical understatement. 🤣 So obviously I’m spending all of my spare brain space scheming and dreaming my next trip to refill a very empty cup. . . I’m craving a trip like the one in this picture. Outdoors, a great group of people, conversation that matters, and a dash of something new. 💕 I’m talking big international trips, trips in the US, and weekends. Where should I go, friends? Where do you want to go? . . If you want good conversation, I really want to point out the latest #SunshineChasers episode with Kristen, founder of @wildandweightless. It ticks two of those things off my list and you don’t even have to go anywhere. 👍🏻✅ To find that, click the “latest” box on the #linkinbio . . #forceofnature #optoutside #shepodcasts #dreamersanddoers #bravingthewilderness #sheexplores #travelblogger #girlgetoutside #travelsandchill #girlsvsglobe #womenwhoexplore #thetravelwomen #wearetravelgirls #sweatydirtyhappy #womenwhowander #goeast #pahappysnaps . 📷 @keenanjocorr (I think??)
What do you do when it’s already Sunday night, it’s raining, and you just got a new tent? Obviously you put it up in the living room and test it out. 🐕 . I’ve been in a two person tent since I started camping and I’ll still be using Ol Reliable for backpacking or when it’s just me...but Val is definitely making this a 4 person tent family. And I guess I didn’t realize how ginormous they are in comparison! . Who’s ready to camp? 👋🏻🐕👅 . #adoptadog #rescuedogsrule #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedisthebestbreed #dogsofinstagram #dogoftheday #adventuredog #outdoorpups #hikingdogsofinsta #thegreatoutdogs #dogsonadventures #optoutside #nobadweather
OUR FIRST DOCUMENTED TONGUE OUT TUESDAY! This little lady has been sick ever since we got her, but Luckily for Paul and I she is still just the happiest pup and she’s still got energy through everything. Just look at that tongue. 😍 👅 . Having a dog has taught me a lot of things in only 3 weeks, but yesterday taught me that I’m going to have to be a lot better with the Leave No Trace Principle Number One: Plan Ahead and Prepare. 🐕 . What are the Leave No Trace Principles? Ahem: they are the “best practices we should follow to enjoy and protect our natural spaces.” (Thanks, @rei 😉) Basically, they’re guidelines to enjoy the outdoors responsibly and help preserve the spaces. Leave it the way you found it sorta thing! . I used to be a fly by the seat of my pants kinda gal but with Val by my side on outdoor adventures, it just means a lot more googling and a more thorough packing list - even for an hour at John Heinz! Is she allowed? What’s the terrain like? Is the weather going to be too hot for her? Do I have all of the things I’d need if she gets hurt? 🤯 It’s a lot but it’s kind of exciting!! . #adoptadog #rescuedogsrule #rescuedogsofinstagram #rescuedisthebestbreed #dogsofinstagram #dogoftheday #adventuredog #outdoorpups #hikingdogsofinsta #thegreatoutdogs #dogsonadventures #optoutside #johnheinzwildliferefuge #usfws #whyilovephilly #tongueouttuesday
