Sonja P

Traveller Type: Authentic Experiencer

Born in West Central Alberta surrounded by the Northern Boreal Forest, the outdoors have always inspired and captivated Sonja. Growing up she spent every possible second outside building forts, riding her bike and exploring the vast forests. This desire to be outdoors has followed her into her adult life and only grown stronger as she continues to live an active, outdoor lifestyle in the Southern Rockies.

Sonja has been actively adventuring in the Rockies since she moved to Calgary nearly 5 years ago. She is extremely passionate about the outdoors and includes photography, kayaking, canoeing, camping, hiking, scrambling, skiing and more recently; climbing, among her many outdoors pursuits. Nicknamed "Safety Sonja" by her friends, Sonja believes that safety and fun can exist at the same time and strives to promote conservation and responsible exploration.
