Today Carolyn interviews co-host Kim Sankey about her most recent six day fastpacking trip to Torres del Paine National Park in the Patagonian region of Chile with RunBC - organized by past guest and amazing athlete and human, Jen Segger.  It was the trip of a lifetime and Kim has received so many questions about it that she's here to tell us all about it on the podcast!

There are two ways to travel and explore. You can sample as many key places as possible in a large region or do a deep dive into a smaller region to experience that place and culture on a more intimate level.  This trip was the latter for Kim. They became a part of the Patagonian landscape for eight days both on the trail and in the towns they visited.  The knowledge of their local guides combined with Jen’s vast experience in the region allowed them to experience the land, people and culture in an intimate, yet expansive way.  Although words and photos will never do this region justice, Kim invites you to listen to the retelling of her adventure. Whether you are an armchair traveller or someone looking to complete the O and W routes of this amazing park on your own, there’s something for you!

In this episode we talk about:

  • Why Patagonia is so special
  • What  fastpacking is
  • What they packed
  • What did they ate
  • What their  accommodations were like
  • Why you might consider doing a trip like this!
