I wrote my song “In My Element” about a 22 day sea kayaking and backpacking trip across the San Juan Islands and North Cascade Mountains in Washington. It was a life changing experience and gave me a deep appreciation for nature and self growth. I went on the trip with 10 other incredible people, who taught me a lot about compassion and gratitude. On this trip, I felt connected to myself and the world around me; I felt in my element.
