Exploration of Being
Exploration lives in all of us.
A basic human need that’s pushed us forward long before the invention of the wheel. And in a world where every corner has been seemingly documented, posted & shared – we still have an innate desire to find out what’s out there for ourselves.
It's here, somewhere far beyond the end of the pavement, where enlightenment happens. Where your phone stopped working hours ago, shortcuts turn into dead ends, and the only reference point is the horizon line beckoning you over that next hill.
This trip is about the lifelong pursuit to uncover something new – about your environment, your limits, and ultimately yourself.
This is Exploration of Being
