Comeback episode. I've remained on the AT throughout the pandemic. My Mom interviews me about why I remained on trail, what the experience has been like, and the importance of taking care of our mental health.
Made it through the Smokies yesterday! I am enjoying a zero day at Standing Bear Farm Hikers’ Hostel in Tennessee – such a beautiful and welcoming place. I hope you enjoy the poem “Be Brave” read by fellow AT hiker, Lightshow. I will be taking a step back from future podcasts as I wrap my head around and deal with the situation at hand of the coronavirus. Until next time… so thankful for you all and I wish you well!
