CURRENT MISSION

To live utterly and entirely authentically..
Travel, climb rocks, ride my motorcycle, learn, play, eat good food, drink much coffee, meet amazing people, give many hugs, try every amazing experience I can! Be someone better than I have been the day before.

ABOUT ME

Short version: My name is Rachel. I grew up in Northwest Washington state and now live mostly on the road. I split my time between living in various vehicles and tents, climbing as many rocks as I can, and traveling the world via motorcycle.

I love all things involving motorcycles, rock climbing, hiking, philosophical conversations, poetry, and sunshine. I like to hope I can leave some sort of positive impact on this world when I go.

I just want to meet you and hear your story! I'm always down to try new things, so what are we doing today?

PHILOSOPHY

"Be the change you wish to see in the world."

Seriously. Do it. It's important.

I believe in sleeping in, love, cardio, milkshakes, and the unfailing power of optimism.

WHAT I CAN OFFER

I am happy to host local hiking and backpacking trips, including car camping, or take you rock climbing. Hablo un poco de Espanol. You are welcome to a hot shower and a vegan meal if I'm around!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Rode my motorcycle solo through multiple countries, my favorite of which was Nepal. Skidding along goat paths at high altitude in the Himalayas on a 200cc street bike, meeting the incredible resilient people of Nepal is not an experience I can really put in words.

教，学，和分享

I have general hiking, wilderness survival and outdoor knowledge. :) I am good at living with very little financial need.

LET'S GO CLIMBING!! I love rock climbing and I'm happy to introduce newbies to the sport.
Ask me questions, I'm glad to share any knowledge I have and learn as well!
