Nothing is off Limits…
Project InsulNation creates life-changing, community-driven adventure experiences for adults with Type 1 Diabetes. Led by T1Ds, for T1Ds, our trips are designed to inspire bold living, build deep connection, and prove that nothing is off-limits with the right support. We don’t just explore mountains—we help you rise above the ones within.
About Us
Project InsulNation is more than an adventure company—it’s a movement built by and for Type 1 Diabetics who refuse to let their diagnosis define their limits. We curate bucket-list-level adventures for adults with T1D, blending heart-pounding challenges, breathtaking landscapes, and a built-in community that truly understands. Whether you're scaling icy peaks, trekking through remote wilderness, or simply sharing stories around a fire, our experiences are designed to shatter isolation, reignite self-belief, and prove that courage and connection are just as essential as insulin.
This is where fear turns into freedom, and where “what if” becomes “what’s next.” We offer the support, safety, and real-world camaraderie you’ve always wanted—so you don’t just survive the adventure… you own it. If you’ve ever dreamed of pushing boundaries with people who truly get it, now’s your chance. Project InsulNation is calling—and you don’t want to miss this!
About Me…
My name is Chris Roome and Type 1 Diabetes has been part of my life for decades, shaping me in ways I never expected. Growing up, I didn’t have role models showing me that T1Ds could chase big dreams, take on adventures, or live boldly without compromise. What I saw was limitation, not possibility. That absence lit a fire in me—because I knew there had to be more than simply surviving with this condition.
Over the years, I’ve proven to myself that with the right mindset, preparation, and support, diabetes doesn’t have to hold us back—it can push us forward. From running marathons to climbing mountains, I’ve learned that every challenge is an opportunity to rewrite the story of what life with T1D can look like.
That’s why I started building Project InsulNation. My vision is to create what I never had: a community that inspires, encourages, and empowers T1D’s to live bold and to live free. I want others to see that their diagnosis isn’t the end of possibility—it’s the beginning of a different kind of strength. And together, we can prove that nothing is truly off-limits.

Our Guiding Principles:
1. Courage Over Comfort We believe growth begins where comfort ends. Whether it’s a mountain trail or managing a low, we empower each other to face challenges head-on—with boldness and belief.
2. Community First We’re stronger together. Everything we do is grounded in shared experience, open support, and being surrounded by people who truly get it—because they live it too.
3. Freedom Through Preparedness We don’t ignore risk—we train for it. Through education, planning, and medical support, we create freedom by building confidence, not avoiding challenge.
4. Real Over Perfect We show up as we are—blood sugar swings, doubts, gear malfunctions and all. Vulnerability builds trust. Perfection isn’t the goal—presence is.
5. Rewriting the Narrative We believe Type 1 Diabetes isn’t a limitation—it’s a launchpad. Every trip, story, and step forward helps rewrite what people with T1D believe is possible.
