OUR ORIGINS
Stefano was born and raised in Italy, with a multigenerational family cabin in the Dolomites. He spent most of his summers hiking and exploring. Rachel is an Italian citizen who was born and raised in the great outdoors of Washington and has spent the last decade running and hiking 5-6 times a week. Together we have lived in Italy as a family and speak both Italian and English natively and fluently. We are passionate about the Dolomites and the strength that comes from being reflective in the outdoors.

With dual citizenship in both countries, we understand the impact study abroad experiences can have on our lives

OUR VISION
We have seen that through being in touch with the outdoors we become in touch with ourselves. During our hikes, we facilitate conversations about “hiking the mountains” of our lives. We believe that perseverance in difficult times is what allows us to succeed in life. These hikes are intended for all youth looking to improve and grow into their best selves through wholesome recreation and uplifting conversations. All are welcome.
OUR METHOD
We believe that by immersing ourselves in good environments with uplifting people, our experiences trend towards strengthening our bonds to God. In our experience, that is a choice that cannot be pushed and should not but each person should choose to build that relationship naturally.
During our hikes we discuss the mountains of our lives and discuss how each of us approaches
difficulty. What’s good and what can be better are things each individual needs to identify for themself. In so doing, we hope to gently encourage each member of our group to grow into the person they hope to become. All are welcome to attend and grow with us as we hike the mountains of our lives.
