Mari and Sophia my travel buddies during the first leg of this trip.
It’s been a nonstop run across some of the wildest, most magical places on Earth, and I wouldn’t trade a second of it.
This summer began in the warm, blue waters of Playa del Carmen with a few days of scuba diving in search of sea turtles.
From there, We moved straight into our whale shark season off Isla Mujeres.
We shared time with our guests, swimming alongside the gentle giants as they fed in calm Caribbean waters.
Well sort of calm, the first two days the weather was a bit rough.
Right after that, Mari, Sophia and I flew straight to Brazil.
First to the Amazon, where we met up with our guests and spent time with the exotic pink river dolphins.
Our afternoons were spent seeking out three toed sloths and monkeys.
Then down to the Pantanal for an exploratory trip to look at the jaguars during the wet season.
It was fast. It was a lot of fun. And it reminded me why I do this.
After Brazil, I had to say goodbye to Mari and Sophia, who headed home while I continued north alone.
Those goodbyes never get easier.
Traveling with my family, even for a short while, adds depth and grounding to the journey.
But the next leg was calling.
Now, I’m writing this from Canada, with a morning flight to Churchill, where the next chapter begins… belugas and polar bears.
It’s exhausting, yes.
But this work, this life, this connection to the wild, I take none of it for granted.
The magic has been nonstop, and every day out here deepens my gratitude.
We do this not just to experience these wild places, but to share them, through stories, images, and the chance for others to come along and feel it for themselves.
