Madagascar Untouched Day 1&2: Antananarivo and Ambalavao

Killing it on Kilimanjaro — My Experience Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro

Hiking is something I typically only do if there’s a waterfall involved, or an epic viewpoint. I don’t really feel the need to prove my strength to myself (or anyone else), or do strenuous exercise just for the hell of it.
