Getting back into nature to mute the white noise of today’s world, to reflect on life and the essential bound with nature that we should focus on, to simply step back to reconnect... Going the extra mile to leave the crowds behind, contemplating life as it is running in the river below underneath the burning sun. • This view was definitely one of the best in Zion NP, Utah, USA and the hike up a fun one! Angels landing attracts many for its impressive ridge-line hike rewarded by such a panorama. What’s your favourite escape into nature? • • • #travelforreal #travelphotography #angelslanding #zionnationalpark #views #earthpix #earth #nature #nature_brilliance #naturelover #experienceutah #wearetravelgirls #contrast #contemplation #awesomeview #usa #earthoutdoors #outdoors #hiking #wanderlust #reconnectwithnature #nature_good #instanature #xputah
Don’t read further: any guesses where this is? Ok, now you can read 😉 After a scenic hike down a red rock canyon that seems completely lost, these ruins appear in its wall bathed by the afternoon light. A few petroglyphs on the side. Cottonwood trees with crispy green young spring leafs around to contrast with the warm colors of the sandstones. Magic! Visiting quite a few national parks here in the US we have been surprised by the large amount of visitors off season and on week days. This place felt so authentic and special because it remains off the beaten path and we had its stunning vistas to ourselves. Welcome to the canyon de Chelly! • • • #realtravel #travelforreal #realtravelgirls #ruins #earthoffical #earthpix #awesome_earthpix #earthfocus #caveexploring #canyondechelly #canyondechellynationalmonument #nationalgeographic #nationalmonument #utahphotographer #experienceutah #explore #visitutah #roadtrip #usa #contrast #nature #naturephotography #springtime #history #culture #indianreservation #beauty #sculpture
Utah is a paradise for mountain biking! 🚵🏽‍♀️ With Moab as the true mountain bike Mecca we decided to leave the crowded trails for the quieter ones around St. George (thank you @bicyclesunlimited for your awesome gear and great advice!). What a blast we had! Kilometers and kilometers of single tracks in a stunning landscape! We ended up here on the Suicidal Tendencies, a black double diamond that does its name right! Super fast, technical, rocky and with some crazy switchbacks this trail seriously tested our skills. 😰 Luckily the view was mind blowing and the perfect excuse to stop for some photos! Mind you the exceptional desert bloom of cactus flowers (another reason to not get off track) 😁 If you are into it, what’s your favorite mountain biking track? • • • #mountainbiking #mountainbike #stgeorgeutah #bicycles_unlimited #backcountry #outdoors #adventure #extremesports #girlswhomountainbike #outdoorgirl #wanderlust #singletrackmind #view #naturelovers #nature_perfection #earthoutdoors #naturescape #desert #desertview #travelwriter #utah #utahmountainbiking #utahrocks #experienceutah #utahunique #travelutah #visitutah
How cute is this little chipmunk? 🐿 We love them!! This furry ball of cuteness was hoping for us to feed him a few snacks... no luck! 😉 It probably found a crumb of something on the very popular Angel’s Landing in Zion NP. • • • #usa #travel #chipmunk #chipmunks #chipmunksofinstagram #animalsoninstagram #instacute #animals #animalphotography #wildlifephotography #wildlife #rodent #rodentsofinstagram #outdoors #travelphotography #canon #zionnps #angelslanding #keepwildlifewild #keepnaturewild #realtravel #wearetravelgirls #followme
Camping under the stars ⛺️ 🌌 in the Joshua Tree National Park in the United States! Camping in the National Parks is increasingly popular and requires reservations sometimes months ahead. Luckily a few spots are still available on a first-come first-serve basis 🍀. Without running water nor electricity it is really back to basics. Falling asleep to the sounds of owls, coyotes, crickets and silence is just priceless 😍🙏 Have you done any backcountry camping and what’s your favourite spot? • • • #joshuatree #joshuatreenationalpark #usanationalparks #earthoffical #starrynight #tentree #campingtent #backcountry #outdoors #backtobasics #travel #travelblogger #downtoearth #reallife #usa #nightphotography #nightnight #wearetravelgirls #wanderlust #tenting #nightskyphotography #nightsky #camping #realtravel #travelforreal #realtravelgirls
Boulder hopping in the Californian desert! 🏜 The Joshua tree national park is such a paradise for its flora (careful: short season in the spring for the bloom!) and fauna (roadrunners, foxes, jack-rabbits you name it!) and just great fun for rock climbing 🧗🏽‍♀️ and free climbing. Follow our website www.BestRegardsFromFar.com for a soon to be published article with stunning photographs that will have you travel there 🤗 • • • #travel #travelphotography #desert #desertlandscape #joshuatree #joshuatreebouldering #joshuatreenationalpark #bouldering #california #girlswhotravel #shewanders #explorer #dutchiesabroad #contrast #nature #theearthoutdoors #usa #travelwriter #travelblogger #adventurers #neverstoptravelling #nationalparks #naturescape
And once upon a time we met our favourite animated character at his birthplace: the DreamWorks Animation Studios in Los Angeles! We won’t watch any animated movies 🎥 🍿 as before now that we realise what it takes to make these characters come alive on your screen 😲 It was seriously mind blowing to witness some of the best in their field work on future movies. Did you know that it takes about 2 full weeks to create 4 seconds of movie? 🤫And that there are about 700 different controls to animate a character between facial expression and body movements? 😱Thank you Christian & William for sharing your passion! We will be impatiently waiting for the next DreamWorks animation movie in the cinema! • • • #travel #travelblogger #losangeles #dreamworks #animation #dreamworksanimation #movieindustry #behindthescenes #wearetravelgirls #girlswhotravel #shrek #shrekisloveshrekislife #shrekislove #work #movieproduction #california #hollywood #usa #roadtripusa #love #happy #followme #bestregardsfromfar
It has been yeeeaaars since my first visit at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. I was so impressed back then that this got me into scuba diving to explore the underwater world by myself. I remembered so vividly the cute sea otters and the bright orange sea nettles. Thanks to the Monterey Bay Aquarium many aquariums around the world have implemented similar tanks so that the public can get up close with fascinating jellyfish. So great to be back today! Thanks @montereybayaquarium for inspiring me and so many others! • • • #travel #California #travelwriter #conservation #aquarium #jellyfish #jellies #underwater #monterey #traveling #wearetravelgirls #exploremore #marineconservation #fascinating #usa #differentworld #keeptraveling #nature #beauty
Aren’t these two seals the cutest ever? You can spot them just a stone’s throws from busy San Francisco. The best way of observing them is definitely by kayak or SUP and to paddle out from Sausalito, a breeze away from SF yet a different world. Thank you Sea Trek for pointing out the best paddle routes and for your passionate team!! #seatrek #travel #paddleboarding #paddle #paddleboard #kayaking #wildlife #wildlifephotography #earthpix #seal #seals #instawild #canon #travelphotography #travelwriter #wildanimals #sanfrancisco #bayarea #babyseal
