Instead of embarking our inspirational adventure, we decided we would experiment and collaborate with a group of young adventurers for our latest collection. We gave them some gear and asked them to embark on their own adventure. 10 different explorers, 10 different adventures, all the same gear. We named our seasonal collection "Roamers and Ramblers" as an homage to our team of explorers. Each week we plan to share their stories and photographs and how they represent the Compas Life.
Our first Roamer and Ramblers feature is Ethan Abitz.

Ethan is a young and exciting explorer from New Hampshire. He is an avid outdoors photographer and creator. We were excited he joined our crew of Ramblers. Last fall Ethan headed into the New England wilderness to take some beautiful winter photos for us.

Tell us a little about yourself.
I live for adventure. Ever since I took a road trip across the country, I have wanted to do nothing but explore this as much of this earth as possible. Adventure is what drives me to get out of the house and go do something new as much as I possibly can.

How do you fit in with our group of Roamers and Ramblers?
I am absolutely a Roamer. I don’t like being stuck in one place too long. I spent this past Fall traveling all throughout the northeast finding unique getaways to stay in, and am leaving in March for a three-month long road trip out West...and after that, who knows!
Where is your favorite place to travel and why?
I love New England, especially Vermont. I’ve gone there more times than I can count and I feel as though I see something new and wonderful every single time, no matter the season.
When visiting a new place what is your favorite thing to do?
I love to scope out the downtown area if there is one, see if there are any cool little cafes or antique stores or something. Then I look up to see if there are any interesting landmarks, waterfalls, rivers or anything of the sorts to go explore! I love waterfalls, they might be my favorite thing ever.

What are some go to things you bring on your adventures?
My camera and drone are two things that I rarely leave the house without. I always bring my adventure log to write about where I’m exploring. I almost always have an apple, banana, or other fruit with me when I go out for an adventure. I also usually always have my French press and a good book with me as well.
Where do you hope to travel to in 2019?
I’m heading out west, for the first time in my life in spring/early summer. Then hopefully exploring a bunch more of New England this fall and am hoping to maybe go to Europe for the first time in my life this coming winter!
