It's been an incredible honor and experience to share the beauty of the Pacific Crest, Appalachian, and Continental Divide National Scenic Trails with the people of Slovakia and the Czech Republic these last two weeks. No matter where I speak, I am always in awe of the way nature brings us together. Hikers across the world know the peace and the contentment that being on trail brings. I am also incredibly grateful to be able to speak to so many University students and businesswomen about the life lessons learned on my journeys... to encourage them to Dream Big and Be Courageous. I am amazed yet again that my choice to spend this lifetime devoted to the simple act of walking has blossomed into the most fulfilling life—beyond what I could have ever imagined. So thankful to the @usembassyprague and @usembassyslovakia for hosting me.
