Discover Tenerife: The Soul of a Place with David N. McIlvaney.

Welcome back to another episode of the Outdoor Adventure Series. Today, we have David N. McIlvaney, a writer and outdoor enthusiast from New York, as our guest.

In this episode, we dive into David's passion for the great outdoors. Recording from his cozy hemlock-wood cabin in upstate New York, David shares the serenity he finds there, often accompanied by a good cigar and an adult beverage. We'll also explore his recent press trip to Tenerife in the Canary Islands, where he hiked, sea kayaked, and experienced the island's vibrant culture and breathtaking landscapes.

David offers a unique perspective on travel, emphasizing the importance of capturing the essence of a place rather than simply listing its attractions. From cycling adventures in Tenerife's hilly terrains to the island's distinct environments and rich banana plantations, David's stories vividly depict his travels. Join us as we discuss the joys and challenges of these adventures, the beauty of immersing oneself in local culture, and the importance of being present in the moment.
