Oh hi there! I’m Michelle!

Welcome to my space. I love to help women hike, camp and backpack. I was born in Panama (the country) and moved to Houston, Texas, when I was young. Looking through my Instagram and Blog might have you believe that I have been traveling most of my life, but nope! I started traveling when I graduated college.

I explored the outdoors nonstop as an adult, which then gave me the idea to document all the beautiful places I visited. I realized that I was passionate about helping other women do the same because I saw myself in them. Since then, I have helped countless women explore the outdoors for the first time.

I write about national parks, outdoor gear, road trips, backpacking, hiking guides, and much more. I am so happy you are here!

This list has all 63 national parks, including the brand-new New River Gorge National Park. I have also listed all the national parks by state.
