New article at Background Mag!

Hey there! Happy Sunday!

There’s something about finding yourself in the middle of nowhere that just hits different. It’s more than just the adventure—it’s the stories and moments that stick with you. At Background, we’re all about exploring those lesser-known places and sharing what makes them special. That’s what keeps us coming back to these hidden corners of the world.

Check out Remote Bigwalling in Kyrgyzstan by Fay Manners. It’s a raw look at what it’s like to face off against the elements and explore a place that few people ever get to see. The rugged beauty of Karavashin, its towering cliffs, and the camaraderie of the team make this an unforgettable adventure.

EDITOR’S PICK

🎧 The Dirtbag Diaries

It is a beloved podcast that tells stories of adventurers who have found themselves in remote places, exploring how experiences in lesser-known, wild regions can transform individuals. With episodes like "The Fear is Real" and "The Shorts – In the Weeds," it captures the emotional connection with the unknown, revealing the deep impact of venturing into nature's hidden corners.

At Background, we encourage you to embrace these stories because they resonate with our own mission: to explore and share the essence of the world’s untouched, lesser-known places. These are the places that leave lasting impressions, where adventure transcends the physical and becomes part of the human story. Listening to The Dirtbag Diaries enriches that sense of wonder and reinforces why exploring these hidden corners of the world matters.
