Hey, I’m Sean, a team member at Survival Topic. I have a passion for hiking, camping and off-grid living. With over 10 years of experience exploring the great outdoors, I have become an accomplished backpacker, having completed multiple long-distance trails, including the Pacific Crest Trail and the Appalachian Trail.

I started with Survival Topic in 2018 while looking for answers to some of my hiking and camping concerns. I quickly realized that there are people who could benefit from my camping knowledge.

Hello, and welcome to our outdoor blog. I’m Andrea, a seasoned expert in hiking and camping from Southern US, and I’m thrilled to be part of the Survivaltopic to bring you useful hiking and camping tips. Since I was a child, I have been going on adventures with my parents. The happiness of being in nature always thrilled me and the delight of spending quality time with loved ones inspired me to take my children – Charlie and Simone, hiking and camping.  For a great experience, I had to learn backpacking, navigation and survival skills, including in-depth gear reviews.

I began working on Survival Topic as a pastime, helping Sean with survival tips and contributing to guides and resources. Now, my main responsibility is to review the data presented to make sure we are covering all the bases and giving hikers/campers the best guidance we can.
