The Roads Less Traveled- In conversation with Krysten Kaladkarin A Whole New World

    • Documentary

In this episode, I am in conversation with Krysten Kaladkarin. Originally from the Philippines, Krysten made the brave decision to leave her home and everything behind to embark on an epic solo adventure, on foot, hitchhiking around the world, collecting memories, and defying expectations, and all the stereotypes connecting to her identity as a "weak passport" citizen, and as a woman.

Krysten is currently based in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine where she is currently volunteering as an English teacher for an alternative learning school and raising funds to distribute humanitarian and medical aid in Ukraine.

Krysten is on a mission to touch lives through sustainable, ethical, and accessible travel. She combines advocacy and adventure and now wants to give back to the community through her blog and social media outreach.
From the entire experience of talking to her, I found Krysten to be extremely optimistic, energetic, courageous, confident, and with a strong desire to explore the world, meet people, and make connections. I gained so much inspiration from the entire conversation as she has a lot of great stories, and I was nothing but envious, equally, in awe of how she has been living every moment of her life as she should. I also deeply admire her ability to persevere through any difficult circumstances and keep moving like a true traveler, she's surely one of a kind!

You can follow Krysten's journey on Instagram and assist with her outreach work in any way possible.
