Italy - 2022

In March of 2022, I decided to head back to Europe after two years of Covid lockdowns and restrictions. I was feeling pretty nervous as I disembarked the ferry and was not sure what to expect as my tires touched European tarmac. I had decided to wait until all travel restrictions had been lifted so I could focus on immersing myself in adventure. Nevertheless, I was still a little on edge as I headed to my first destination, Italy. The plan to visit the Dolomites was at least five years in the making so what better time to make it happen than after two years of zero travel. At this point, I’ll let the photos and accompanying YouTube episodes tell the story.

Note: I also documented the trip in 35mm and 120 film – see Italy in Film.
