Active Travel Adventures podcast I Inspiring Multi-Day Adventure Trips Around the World

Where else on the planet can you simultaneously straddle two continents (Europe and North America), and hike in the most unusual and varying landscapes in the world? Iceland!!! The competing tectonic plates mean you can actually SEE that the land is ALIVE! Gasses spout, geysers spray, volcanos explode, lands collide, and springs erupt in this unusual island nation that is tempered by the warmth of the Gulf Stream despite the fact that it sits just south of the Arctic Circle. Progressive in attitude, almost all food is organic. The water is so pure it doesn't need to be treated. Energy is cheap due to all the geothermal activity so it's easy to stay warm during the long winter nights! And did I mention the AMAZING LANDSCAPE!!!

Iceland has it all! From humungeous glaciers to one of the world's most beautiful non-tropical beaches, to moss covered mountains to those colored like a rainbow. And hundreds of waterfalls! Perhaps it's all the stunning trails in Iceland that leads to its men to live the longest on Earth (and the women third longest).

Hiking Volcanoes in Nicaragua

One of my most favorite trips was a hiking, backpacking and cultural adventure in Nicaragua, considered by many to be the next 'Costa Rica'.

NOTE: It is imperative that you use a trusted guide service at this time as there have been incidents of unrest in recent years and you want to go with someone familiar with the current situation, for your own safety. I also recommend visiting this State Dept link for the latest updates.

Contact me if you would like to reach out to my local guide (Marjorie and her team was fantastic!!!).
