In this episode Franziska chats with Adam Sawyer, who is an esteemed hiking and travel guidebook author in Oregon and Washington. He has written books like Hiking Waterfalls in Oregon, Hiking Waterfalls in Washington and his most recent book, Urban Hikes in Oregon. A year ago Adam lost his life partner in a tragic house fire and he has been hiking almost every single day since then.
