A Word From The Editor

Have you ever received a postcard from Antarctica? I hadn’t—until recently. Thanks to our fearless and adventurous contributor, Major Rogers, I now have one. In fact, until Major’s incredible 55th birthday trip, I didn’t know anyone who had been to this remote part of the world.

As someone who loves to travel and thrives on a good adventure, I realized something surprising: I don’t actually have a bucket list—at least not one that’s physically written down. Sure, I have places I dream about, but without it being organized, it doesn’t really exist. As I’m getting older, I’m starting to realize that maybe it’s time to get my travel dreams down on paper and start crossing things off. After hearing about Major’s epic journey, I’m definitely rethinking that.

In this issue, we’re bringing you everything you need for your spring adventures. From exploring open air spaces, a runner's guide, and a camping recipe that’s as fun to make as it is to eat, we’re embracing the great outdoors. Plus, we’re taking you on an unforgettable journey to Antarctica and Easter Island in an inspiring feature.

So, whether you’ve already checked something off your bucket list this year or, like me, are just now realizing you need one, this is the perfect time to dream big. I hope you enjoy this issue!
