Powerful Quotes by Katelyn  

\\n

\\u25cf For me, it\\u2019s all about nature and the outdoors. When you\\u2019re outside the city, you really feel alive and free.  

\\n

\\u25cf When I\\u2019m on a hike, I don\\u2019t really care if I don\\u2019t get to the destination. Sometimes I don\\u2019t even have a destination. I\\u2019m in it to explore and make my own path. It\\u2019s definitely the journey that is most important to me.  

\\n

\\u25cf You\\u2019re just present and in the moment. You\\u2019re looking around yourself. When I was in Nepal, there was no internet half the time, no cars, and the power went out a lot. Life was just so simple. People were happy. We ate real food. It was so easy to drop everything and just enjoy the moment when I was out there.  

\\n

\\u25cf The hardest thing about travel, always, is coming home.  

\\n

\\u25cf Don\\u2019t put off travel. Do it now. Do it while you\\u2019re young and healthy. You can always earn more money later on. You just learn so much and experience things that you wouldn\\u2019t otherwise.  Connect with Katelyn on Instagram and YouTube
