    Hiking the Appalachian Trail

    Hiking the Appalachian Trail

    Learn from a couple who successfully thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail (watch the video) and NEVER GOT A BLISTER! They share their wisdom and tips and tricks here. Oh, and if you think they must be veteran backpackers, you're wrong. The longest camping trip they had done prior to hiking the AT was 3 nights!
    "75% of the people who finish a thru-hiked the AT each season have not spent more than three consecutive days outside"
    "Fund the trail you want to hike, not the other way around. Not, hike the funds you have."

    I can't wrap my mind around such a focused and simple lifestyle. It's yan and Nicole Levinson's day-to-day while they live on their 28' sailboat, Nioma.
     
    I had the unique privilege to interview Ryan just before their Pacific crossing in order to learn more about life on a sailboat, logistics, and the planning involved for a Pacific crossing. 
     
    *Spoiler Alert*  I'm happy to report that they made it safely to Tahiti and have been kite surfing and free-diving to their hearts' content along the French Polynesian for months.
