When we travel, especially solo, our surroundings have a way of reflecting back to us the peaks and valleys within ourselves. Listen today as Jackie speaks with Mark Johanson about his recently published book Mars on Earth: Wanderings in the World’s Driest Desert, which is part travelogue, part memoir about the forgotten places of Chile and Mark’s personal journey through a tumultuous time in both the world and in his own life.
