Kailee Abasolo from Valley Center fell in love with the outdoors through a simple activity.
“I started enjoying the outdoors when I was around 8 years old,” Abasolo said. “My parents got me started on neighborhood walks.”
Not only does Abasolo like the outdoors because of sports, but hobbies as well.
“The most time that I spend outdoors is playing softball,” Abasolo said. “I also love to fish outdoors with my family at the Sedgwick county park.”
It is the aesthetics and the way it makes her feel that draws Abasolo to being outside. There is a feeling she gets with nothing else.
“I find the outdoors very calming and pretty especially in the fall when the leaves start to turn all sorts of colors,” Abasolo said. “Getting to watch the sunset most nights is a great pleasure.”
When she gets overwhelmed or needs to be reminded of some of the things she has done in the past, then you can find Abasolo outside.
“The outdoors for me provides a safe space where I can think and reset,” Abasolo said. “It also provides me with great memories with family and friends.”
