Hiking the Tour du Mont Blanc with my Parents 🤪

In June of 2022, my parents and I hiked the Tour du Mont Blanc. A lot of people questioned whether or not I'd be able to spend 10 whole days secluded in the mountains with just my parents, but I knew it would be an experience I'd look back on for a lifetime.

The countless gruelling ascents and unforeseen injuries forced us to remain resilient, as we continually had to embrace the constant discomfort in order to press forward. Though the perfectly timed cappuccinos and friendships made along the way well made up for the daily mental and physical fatigue.

This thru-hike taught us about happiness, togetherness, and resilience. We walked away from the TMB with a deeper understanding of ourselves and each other.

In the words of Christopher McCandless, "Happiness is only real when shared."
