I was born in a family of experienced travelers and used to spend all my school breaks and long weekends camping and hiking around the most admirable places in Canada and sometimes United States. My dad used to be a soldier and always taught me how to survive during unpredictable circumstances. Like every other kid, I wasn’t really interested in my parents' extreme lifestyle when I was little, but I can’t imagine my life now without regular outdoor trips and extreme sports.

Thanks to my intense childhood and a few decades of experience I can now choose the best equipment for any adventure waiting for me to dive in. And after all, I have been through, I want to share my knowledge so more people could join an enjoyable and breathtaking trip to discovering magical nature around us.
