Noelle completed hiking the Pacific Coast Trail earlier this year, which runs for 2650 miles along the West Coast of America. She did the majority of it solo, and completed it in just 147 days.
In this episode we discuss: why she decided to take on this enormous challenge, the magnitude of nature and revelations Noelle had during the trail, why trusting your intuition is the best tool, Noelle's experience of Norovirus during the PCT and the dramatic events following this, if she felt safe solo hiking as a female, how she sourced water, food and found places to camp, her perspective of life post PCT and readjusting back to the modern world, her biggest tips of what she has learned, and much more.
