Hi, I’m Krysta!

I create content to help you feel inspired to live a life true to you.

I love making videos and posting them to YouTube.

I also love being outside on a hiking trail.

These are the long distance trails I’ve completed:

  • Pacific Crest Trail: 4,200 km (2023)

  • Croatian Long Distance Trail: 2,200 km (2022)

  • Great Divide Trail: 950 km (2020)

More plans are in the works….

I’m also on a journey to create a life I love. I create content with a goal to fund my lifestyle and allow me to keep doing my two favourite things: thru hiking and travel.

What you should know about me…

I am passionate about helping others access the outdoors

Whether it’s by offering tips or inspiration, I want to help you get outside. I strongly believe that outdoor activities can be accessible and encouraged. I definitely don’t think that thru hiking is the only way to do it. It’s just my current favourite way, which is something I’m very lucky to be able to say.

I am a creative and always have been

I ignored the creative part of myself for many years. I pursued scientific and technical degrees at university. I have a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Physical Therapy. I really did enjoy using my brain in that way, but eventually my creative side became too loud to ignore. I started creating content on YouTube in the summer of 2020 and have been consistently posting ever since. Last year, I quit working as a physiotherapist to pursue creation full time. And now I’m working hard to grow my YouTube channel so that I can reach my income goals!

In my downtime I love watching TV shows

I loved reading growing up because I could immerse myself in a new world or story. Once I was able to rent or buy my own DVD’s (hehe yes I’m a millennial) I started watching TV shows this way. I really loved it. Now, of course, I watch shows on streaming platforms. My most recent favourite is The Walking Dead and all the shows within The Walking Dead universe. I really nerd out and love it. If you wanted me to talk about my favourite shows, you would probably have a hard time shutting me up.

I really care about the planet

I try to make small or big choices within my life to decrease my impact on the environment. I am definitely not perfect at it.

Interior design is a hobby of mine

I actually almost transferred out of university and into interior design school. I did the intro interview and everything. Even though I decided to finish my science degree, my interest in interior design never stopped. I loved designing the interior of our custom camper van build (I did this with my husband Brian) and I’m often on Pinterest looking at different ideas and thinking of how I would like to set up a space.
