I’m attempting to adventure peacefully—to travel and live with intention and sustainability—for a peaceful climate. This slow, minimalist, vegan (+gluten-free), and mindful effort is imperfect. So I lean on gratitude. Let’s begin this journey by honoring the Indigenous, wisely bypassing those who harm, while joining the United Nations. Because everyone deserves peace. | XO, Kristen
