Ask For Adventure is a travel blog that is dedicated to helping you explore all there is to see and do in California. You’ll find in-depth guides to some of the best California cities, attractions, and recommendations for hotels and restaurants based on my own personal experience. 

I have been lucky enough to have been born and raised in Northern California, so I have already spent years discovering some of the best places to visit, eat, and see in this beautiful state. 

Whether you’re a local looking for new places to see or a visitor planning a trip, my goal is to help you explore the best of California.

What does “Ask For Adventure” mean? 

As someone that has struggled with anxiety for most of my life, I am always trying to face my fears and push myself outside my comfort zone. 

One of my favorite quotes is: “Don’t ask for security, ask for adventure. Better to live 30 years full of adventure than 100 years safe in the corner.” -Jim Rohn

I decided that “Ask For Adventure” would be the perfect name for a blog that will push me out of my own personal comfort zone, and inspire you to have more adventures.

And, to remind you to have the confidence to try new things and not let your fears stop you from going somewhere new.

Meet Amber

My name is Amber and I have lived in Northern California for all my life. I love visiting new places and am always ready for adventure! My hobbies include riding dirt bikes, snowboarding, and traveling. 

I think that life is just more exciting when going somewhere new. From trying something for the first time, to finally visiting that dream destination, life is just better with a little adventure!

I also believe that you don’t have to have to go far to find adventure, if you look for it, you can find it right in your own backyard. 

Since my backyard is California, I figured why not have some local adventures while helping others explore my home state, so I started this site.

I plan on doing some traveling in California and making some memories with my kids, while helping you to do the same. 

While I will be revisiting and documenting many California destinations to help my readers, many of these places I have already visited. 

Since I have lived in California for 39 years I have spent countless weekends traveling around the state. In fact, I have visited 40 of California’s 58 counties!

I am always going on new adventures around California! From visiting new cities, finding the best beaches, hikes, waterfalls and going on road trips.

Some of my all time favorite places that I have visited in California include Burney Falls, Redwood National Forest, Fern Canyon, Disneyland, San Francisco, Holywood, and McCloud Falls.

Thank you again for visiting! California has so much to offer and I’m excited to continue exploring it with you.

🖤 Amber
