Adventure Sports Podcast Ep. 826: From Engineer to a Backpacking Career - Revisited - Jessica “Dixie” Mills
Originally aired June 3, 2019
When Jessica Mills, aka “Dixie”, quit her engineering job and began her first thru-hiking adventure on the Appalachian Trail, she never imagined her YouTube channel would grow into what it has become. Through her easy-going demeanor, matter-of-fact advice, and overall charming attitude, she has become one of the go-to sources of advice, inspiration, and how-to channels to learn about all things backpacking. I hope you enjoy this look behind the scenes of the Homemade Wanderlust channel and the triple-crowner who hosts it.
Be sure to check out Dixie’s weekly videos here, which include her most recent thru-hike, The Florida Trail: www.YouTube.com/c/homemadewanderlust
