Meet Samer from Zenderfull
Hi, I'm Samer from Zenderfull. I'm a self-taught photographer specializing in capturing celestial landscapes. I combine my passion for astronomy and the outdoors with my expertise in photography to create unforgettable guided outings under starry skies.
I'm Lebanese-Canadian, and since arriving in Montreal in 2016, I've been scouring Quebec for the most auspicious locations to bring you along with me to capture dazzling images of the starry sky including the Milky Way and the Northern Lights.
Zenderfull is a compound word that means Zen & Wonderful, and it's the feeling I get when I'm outside observing the magic of the stars.
Meet Nathalie from Mtl Hiking
Hey, I'm Nathalie, founder of Mtl Hiking! With a background in psychology and public health, I worked alongside a researcher studying the benefits of physical activity and the outdoors activities on mental health and well-being. While that work was valuable, I realized my true passion was creating something more hands-on and impactful. That’s what led me to start Mtl Hiking—a community for students and young professionals here in Montreal. Our mission is simple: to help people build meaningful connections with like-minded individuals through hiking, while giving them a chance to disconnect from everyday stress and recharge in nature. Hope to see you on a trail sometime soon!
