Episode 1 – Introductions
Trekkers Life is focused on the sense of adventure and novelty that comes from travel. A podcast show for your ears. News appealing to the travel minded. The show focuses on anything from a day trip out to full blown expeditions. Every episode will be driven by that weeks guest and where their particular passion for travel takes them.
I am a big proponent of backpacking travel, where you hike for days or weeks out in the middle of nowhere with everything you need on your back. While backpacking has always been my bread and butter my fiance, Jess, is a big fan of comfort. While we both love to travel and see everything we can when we are out there I’m able to get her to compromise with me a bit and we will car camp with a large inflatable air mattress in lieu of the king size bed and breakfast place she would prefer.
