    Traveling Solo, But Never Really Alone

    Traveling Solo, But Never Really Alone

    When I went out on my first solo trip, I was fascinated by the way budget backpacking seemed like a rite of passage. A tradition to create a unique travel experience, and share backpacker knowledge that is passed down from traveler to traveler over many years. We will explore the idea that even while traveling alone, you are never really alone. How these connections can lead to so many doors opening like future work, learning new traits and practices, and even lead to the most memorable travel adventures.

    Todays episode is audio from a webinar I presented for the Nomdaic Network in June 2021.

    Anna French has always been adventrious, as she caught the travel bug at a young age by going on epic road trips with her mom. Since then, Anna has backpacked around the globe, and found herself living in her van for three years, as she ventured around the country. Along the way she learned so much about herself, ways to travel sustainably, and even found somethings she was not looking for, that forever changed her life.
