Aly’s travels with Natural Habitat Adventures have taken her from the cloud forests of Costa Rica to Nicaragua, Belize, Guatemala, the Galapagos Islands, Machu Picchu and into parts of both the Peruvian and Ecuadorian Amazon. The call of the wild has also taken her to India in search of Bengal tigers, to China on the prowl for wild panda spoor, and kayaking through Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia alongside rare river dolphins. She has journeyed from the Canadian Arctic to the opposite end of the pole to explore Antarctica, South Georgia and the Falkland Islands. Amid such diverse destinations, Africa holds a place in Aly's heart like no other. She has had the good fortune to spend time in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Malawi on numerous occasions. Travels closer to home have included trips to experience the splendors of Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks, the scenic canyons of the American Southwest, Alaska’s wild Katmai coast to walk with grizzlies, the national parks of South Florida, and down to Mexico to kiss a gray whale off the Baja Peninsula and wander through the fir forests of the Central Highlands among millions of monarch butterflies.
When she isn't traveling or working in the office, Aly spends her free time with her husband Bobby raising two wild Coloradans, Graham and Rowan, playing in the mountains, and eagerly awaiting her next adventure.
