    Episode 104 - Everything You Need to Know About Self-Guided Travel with Macs Adventure
    2025/04/01

    Have you ever felt the pull of the open road—or in this case, the open trail? Last year, we had an incredible conversation with our friends Mo and Erica at Raut Finder about their journey on the Camino de Santiago, walking from Portugal to Spain. Hearing their stories of slow travel, discovery, and the power of walking from one village to the next really stayed with us. We left that interview inspired—and dreaming of a pilgrimage of our own someday. In this episode, we’re excited to share our conversation with Lauren McFadden from Macs Adventure. We’ll talk about the heart behind their travel philosophy, what makes self-guided walking adventures so special, and what we can expect on our journey through Umbria this May. So lace up your walking shoes—or just sit back and relax—and let’s discover a new way to adventure.
