Throwback to London last month and an intense week of training with this stellar crew of smartypants. Class of ‘19 Building Business Managers with @intrepidtravel. 🎓 With graduation celebration beers in-hand, of course. #beintrepid

One week in Vegas with these babes: A photo essay. Don’t even know how to caption it all so will just say we were asked many times what we were celebrating — at first we told everyone our 40ths but then changed it up: “We’re celebrating life!”

Be the colour in a beige desert.

I knew the Valley of Fire would be impressive but I was stunned by how gorgeous it really is, in that eerie, otherworldly way. I took so many photos (if you follow my stories, apologies for all the spamming), but none of my shots could capture the immense nothingness of the red desert that feels like it’s going forever in every direction. These rock formations are 150 million years old (that’s dinosaur era) and human settlement in the valley goes back to 300 BCE, and more recently, to outlaw hideouts in the 1800s. Just being there amid all that vast, dry, deadly land and long history leaves you feeling so small and humbled. (Also, regarding all my way-too-giddy self photos: that’s what happens when an introvert goes to the desert after a week on the Vegas Strip.) #vegas #nevada #valleyoffire
