I’d always seen pictures of the Alps. A few years ago, I heard of a hike that goes through France, Italy, and Switzerland, but I always thought it would be way beyond my capabilities. Over the years, it grew on me and I started doing some research. Eventually, I found a couple of friends who were down for the adventure and we full sent it. The beautiful views of Mont Blanc and amazing hiking culture on the tour made this one of the coolest adventures I’ve ever been on.
