Hey there! My name is Kay (aka Kath, Katherine, or KK depending on who you ask) and I'm a hiker, outdoor enthusiast, travel nurse, beer lover, soup connoisseur, and now Trek blogger. I'll be taking the long way from Georgia to Maine and sharing my experience here as I go. Please bear with me as I crack dad jokes and turn everything I think into a song.
