Meet Sarah, my sister, who has been blazing around the globe since she was 18. Following her adventures is very inspiring and she just recently set out for her biggest one to date. Check out the trailer below!

Her blog is up and running and full of interesting articles, travel advice, and of course, a blog detailing her adventure as she retraces Richard Halliburton’s steps across the world. 14 months and 29 countries, it’s sure to be an epic adventure!

Ups – Epic Climbing, Awesome People, and Beautiful Country
