DON'T MISS

  • There’s often much more to my adventures than the photo alone, so you’ll want to read the captions like this one about a bear scare [PHOTO]

  • Stumbling into accessibility challenges can happen overseas and in your own backyard, even with a simple trash can [PHOTO]

DIG DEEPER

  • The first year of Instagram posts from 2016 featured zero pics of me but dramatic photos of our travels to the most exotic corners of the world like Vietnam [PHOTO], the Sahara Desert [PHOTO], and Bhutan, the Land of the Thunder Dragon [PHOTO]
