Gear check! What I wear & carry for day hikes

One of the most common challenges when going on a hike is knowing what you need and what you do not need. Of course, we are all different and so we need different things but here is a general guide that you can follow. It took me a few trials to figure this out. My best tip when it comes to packing is to try different things and find what works for you. There are some things you must have but then there are many that will depend on your unique preferences. I have a standard checklist I use, and then I vary it based on the specific hike (weather, location, intensity). In this episode, I am sharing a general checklist I use which can act as a guide for anyone who needs a starting point.

The roof of Africa - My Kilimanjaro experience

6 days, 5 nights. An experience of a lifetime. In this episode, I am sharing my experience hiking to Uhuru peak (5895m)! I had an amazing time on this mountain, Kili showed me so much peace and love. This is not an easy expedition, but then you get to the roof of Africa and you are sitting at the highest point in Africa! In this episode I do a narration of our day by day experience. I will be sharing more about the gear I used on the mountain in a different episode, and then sharing my tips & tricks should you want to attempt this. Thanks for listening!
