Adventure As A Muse

A few years ago, standing atop a mountain, singer-songwriter Carla Riojas and her wife made a pact: to go hiking every Monday. What started as a way to exercise has changed the way Carla connects with herself, her music, and the people around her. When she’s on the trail, she experiences the mental clarity and peace of mind that’s so essential to the creative process. By sharing her own journey of outdoor adventure through her online community Mountain Monday, Carla has inspired others to cultivate their adventurous side. “You don't have to travel to find amazing places. Adventure is just starting with simple things in your area. Don't think about it too much, just do it.”
