There is nothing quite like the adrenalin and anticipation that comes with each adventure. Vanessa is also a gear junky and is constantly searching out and testing products to assist in her pursuits.

I’m a freelance writer and editor who grew up outside as a naturalist. My first report in grade school was on birding. For another one, I cut out photos from my dad’s hunting and fishing magazines and wrote about the camouflage of birds, mammals and fish. I studied biology and received my terminal degree in the Field Naturalist Program at the University of Vermont. My summer hobbies include hiking, biking, gardening, and wildlife and bird watching. In winter, I like to cross-country ski and quilt, but my favorite adventure is to strap on snowshoes and track wildlife. I’ve lived in many places across North America, from New England to southeastern British Columbia, and I currently reside in Quebec. One of my favorite quotes is this: “I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than to be crowded on a velvet cushion.” ~Henry David Thoreau7 Articles
