The Journey is the Story

This blog is a collection of travel stories, research insights, publications, and reflections from expeditions and fieldwork around the world. It explores how journeys — whether across rugged landscapes or through academic inquiry — become powerful narratives that teach, inspire, and connect. Here you’ll find thoughtful entries on overland travel, phenomenological research, creative methods, and the evolving field of outdoor adventure education, offering a rich resource for fellow researchers, students, and travel enthusiasts alike.
