“Travel far enough, you meet yourself”

Perhaps the most shocking number from traveling 13 months around the world for less than $15,500 is how much I paid for accommodations.

Everyone knows that hotels eat up a sizable chunk of your travel expenses, but $2679 spent on accommodations for 13 months only averages out to $6.73/day or slightly over $200/month. Girl math says I’m saving big money by traveling full-time instead of living in Canada.

In July 2023 I quit my job and embarked on my longest journey yet: 18 countries in 13 months as a solo female traveler.

This time I destroyed my old record by completing 13 months with only $15,473 USD! That’s under $39/day!

Very few hikers have attempted the Molar Pass Loop compared to its popular neighbor Skoki Loop to the south. Due to the numerous river crossings, bushwhacking, a grueling length and elevation gain, we didn’t feel comfortable bringing any friends this time. Topping it off by starting at Mosquito Creek which circles around Noseeum Mountain… yeah it’s a pretty hard sell.
