About this episode
In 2012, Vanessa quit her job, sold all her possessions, purchased and RV and set off to live a life she had been dreaming of. She and her companion, Shacky, are traveling around the Americas " living day-to-day, bartering or trading for things that we need, sometimes doing freelance or contract work, and following our whims wherever they take us". We talk to Vanessa about her new book, "The Summit Seeker" a story of her life and how she has ventured to this point. She shares what she has learned about running from Malcom Gladwell, Alberto Salazar and Bilbo Baggins.
