About us

Hi! We are Niall and Orlaith, an Irish couple who love ​exploring, spending time in nature and documenting our ​adventures.


We are currently living in British Columbia, Canada. When we ​aren’t in our 9-5 jobs you will find us in the mountains (hiking ​or skiing), road tripping or on our next flight.

If you would like to see what we are up to now, check out our ​Instagram!

OUR HIGHLIGHTS

Lake Louise, Banff National Park

Lake Louise is as picturesque as you ​can imagine! Arriving here early to ​watch the sun rise over the mountains ​and reflection on the lake was beautiful.

Mount Baker, Washington

Our first trip to Washington was in ​September 2023. We didn’t know what ​expect but it was one of our favourite ​trips yet.

Las Vegas, Nevada

Las Vegas isn’t all about the bright ​lights, it is the perfect base for ​exploring the desert and canyons.
