Cali loves nature’s unpredictability. Every trail, even the same one, becomes a new adventure. From the tiniest creature to the largest animal, she eagerly explores details of each one.
The snow leopard has captured her heart. She has been tracking one named Nala on Fahlo. Cali loves how they use their long tails to stay balanced while running, the unique sounds they make, and the surprising fact they’re more closely related to tigers than to leopards. They are rarely seen and difficult to track in the wild, so seeing photos of Nala on Fahlo’s trail cameras makes the experience and the animal even more special to her.
Cali loves hiking the trails in the National forests near our home. She loves the adventure of climbing over fallen trees, walking through mud, and spotting animals and tiny creatures along the way. For Cali, every hike feels different, and she believes the trails are never boring and there’s always something new to discover.
