Hey there! I am Raquel
Trailulive Founder | Principal | Brand & Social Media Manager | Designer | Photographer | Ambassador
Born and raised in the area of Barcelona, Spain. I’ve lived in California since 1995. When I’m not working on my other biz, Porro Grafik, building brands, creating graphics, or taking pictures, you can find me outdoors on the trails running, hiking or traveling with my family in our Winnebago RV. Whether it is to the mountains or coastal areas, traveling abroad, or following my kid's around doing what they love, the outdoors is a gift that keeps giving to our family.
TRAIL RUNNING is one of my passions. Drawing from this passion and how it makes me feel, I decided to start shooting photos to inspire others to embark on, relish what they love and share their experiences of the outdoors. I believe doing this I can open a worldwide conversation with a purpose that makes a difference. A purpose of renewing or deepening one’s own outdoor relationship by using our high speed, connected society. I love trails, photography and outdoor living and wanted a place to pull it all together. That's why I created Trailulive.
I am Raquel Stanton and here at Trailulive we welcome all of you and are waiting with anticipation to hear your stories, view your amazing visions of nature, and marvel at what you have to share. Let’s get out there!
Your trail. Your life. Your story.
Trailulive.
Where I live, being connected to the outdoors is inevitable. The minute I open my eyes and glance through my bedroom window, I am there. The moment I open my door, I am greeted by mountains inviting me to come out and play. Whether I am chasing my children in the snow(or they’re chasing me), running or hiking the trails, skiing or touring the slopes with my husband and family. Whether it’s as an amateur, novice or competitor, these outdoor surroundings give back the connection I feel everyone longs to have. The connection to one’s own self.
I am continually inspired by the immense beauty of this creation and feel blessed to live in and be a part of such an abundant place of ‘natural art’.
It is my wish to share my experiences and those of who wish to share their trail experiences via me.
Your trails. Your lives. Your stories.
Come share them with us.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Your Trailulive Blog Manager,
Sarah Bannwart
