Jana

Hey y'all! I'm Jana (she/her), a SOBO Appalachian Trail thru-hiker from New Brunswick, Canada. I grew up 4 hours from Millinocket, Maine and just graduated university. I'm a regular weekend warrior backpacker with a passion for a big scoop of PB in my morning oatmeal. I like organizing my Spotify playlists by genre and waking up before sunrise.
