celebrating 25 years of adventure!

This page is your backstage pass to Smiling Albino’s 25th anniversary, a quarter century of wandering off the map, dodging traffic, befriending elephants, and turning curious guests into lifelong storytellers. It also kicks off the countdown to our big celebration event, where we’ll mark this amazing milestone in true SA style. 

As we get closer, this page will keep growing with new details, fun snippets, and behind-the-scenes photos, so check back now and then to see what we’re cooking up.

For now, enjoy a few photos of the early days of Smiling Albino, when cofounders Dan and Scott were powered by little more than youthful energy, unreasonable curiosity, the occasional Red Bull, and an insatiable desire to show people a different part of the world, differently.
