Celebrating 26 years around the sun 🎂⁣ ⁣ A Celebrating 26 years around the sun 🎂⁣

A little throwback to one of my favorite memories... spending time with good friends in the mountains, laughing until our lungs hurt, stomachs filled with more pasta and pizza than should be allowed. It’s moments like this that have brought me so much happiness over the years and I’m looking forward to making many more in the years to come ✨⁣

Capturing the last moments of fall in southern Swi Capturing the last moments of fall in southern Switzerland before winter arrives on the DJI Mini 2 from @djiglobal. It's small, compact size has been perfect for short weekend trips to the mountains, especially when I don't want to pack too much with me. ⁣

This is by far one of my favorite lakes to visit i This is by far one of my favorite lakes to visit in Switzerland during the fall since it’s the perfect place to see the colors reflected in the lake’s still waters. ⁣

We were quite surprised to find the lake almost completely frozen when we arrived. Luckily we found one patch that was unfrozen and managed to catch the light breaking through the clouds for just a few moments - illuminating the larches surrounding us ✨
Welcoming Winter ❄️ I’ve spent a lot of time Welcoming Winter ❄️ I’ve spent a lot of time exploring places closer to home this year and it’s given me the chance to finally see places I might not normally visit. Thanks to the new DJI Mini 2 from @djiglobal I’ve been able to capture these moments and enjoy these places from a new perspective. ⁣

Moving to Switzerland has made me feel closer to n Moving to Switzerland has made me feel closer to nature than ever before. Whether it’s hiking the Swiss Alps, taking a swim in an alpine lake, or walking across one of Switzerland’s many glaciers - every experience I’ve had outdoors has grown my connection to it. And as my connection to nature has grown, so has my desire to care for it and protect it. ⁣
-⁣
Whether it’s eliminating single use plastics or opting for more sustainable clothing options - I’ve been trying to shift my daily habits over the years for the better. In fact, positive changes can start with all of us to preserve the places we love. Because when all are committed to making even small changes, it can create a big impact on the future of our environment. ⁣
-⁣
That’s why I’m excited to partner with @Bally to raise awareness around their new Peak Outlook capsule - an eco-friendly collection of outdoor-inspired products where 100% of net proceeds will benefit mountain preservation. ⁣

The Bally Peak Outlook Initiative has already supported sherpas to remove two tons of waste in Everest, all the way from the base camp to the peak. And by the end of 2021, Bally will have cleaned up the base camp of Everest an additional two times as well as seven other 8,000 meter mountains in the Himalayas. With the Himalayan glaciers melting at an accelerated rate which is a vital source of water for over 800 million people, it’s great to see Bally’s commitment to change and dedication to restoring the pristine landscapes of these sacred mountains. ⁣

St. Valentin Church. Arguably one of the most beau St. Valentin Church. Arguably one of the most beautiful churches in the Dolomites of Italy ✨⁣

This church is said to date all the way back to 1244 and sits perched high above the idyllic town of Siusi. It’s the perfect place to watch the sun set, as the towering peak of Schlern lights up behind it.
Golden autumn sunrises ✨ I recently took a short Golden autumn sunrises ✨ I recently took a short weekend trip just a few hours from my home and it was the perfect time to test out the new DJI Mini 2 drone from @djiglobal. This phone-sized drone is incredibly small, making it easy to pack into a hiking backpack or even a jacket pocket. Having lightweight gear no longer means you have to sacrifice quality. This drone weighs about the same as an apple, yet has powerful features like 4K video, Quickshots, and 31-minutes of flight time to make it easier than ever to create on the go.
