WELCOME TO LIVES OF Lara

Hello, you beautiful human, you! Welcome to my blog.

I hope you find a place to camp, a trail to hike, or a new place to explore. If that’s not your jam, maybe you’ll find a photo inspiring, a running tip, or my biggest hope:

engage with something you too, have been curious about.

You see, this blog is dedicated to learning. To giving into new experiences and sharing them with the world. I hope it might contribute to your own creative exploration, what ever that may be.

about me

Hey there, I’m Lara!

I’m a Chicago native who 6 years ago packed her bags in search of adventure on the West Coast. The original adventure focused on a life in film (still a passion!)- but a seed was undoubtedly planted for a different type of adventure once we made the road-trip out West.

It was on this trip that my now husband showed me the ropes to camping and hiking for the first time, and I found myself completely and hopelessly enamored.

Since then, I have continued growing my love for camping and hiking, before finally deciding I wanted to share these passions I was reverently learning with the world. Acknowledging my additional interests, Lives of Lara was born. On this journey to build upon my own creative ambitions I hope it too can inspire yours!
