Hey, I'm Rachel. After completing a 2-year degree in business I decided to go on a journey for a rite-of-passage into adulthood and hike the PCT. I just finished it last year. I learned so much, but I missed my cat. This last summer I got a job working on a salmon fishing boat in Alaska with my partner. We shared cooking duties and piled the fishing net on a 5-person crew, 18.5-meter wooden boat. Afterward, I spent two weeks in Tokyo before meeting up with my partner and traveling throughout Southeast Asia before we move to Tasmania, Australia.
