In today’s episode, we’re thrilled to welcome our guests, Monica Kirshner and Lise, who share their incredible experiences climbing Kilimanjaro. This episode isn’t just about conquering the world’s highest freestanding mountain; it dives into the emotional connections and camaraderie formed through shared challenges.
Monica, with her limited hiking background, took on this trek as a personal challenge, while Lise, a seasoned hiker, sought a supportive and ethical adventure. They discuss the logistics of the climb, the vital role of local guides and porters, and the lessons learned about listening to our bodies in the face of altitude challenges.
Join us as they reflect on how this transformative experience has shaped their travel aspirations and fostered a deeper understanding of responsible tourism. Whether you're a novice or an experienced adventurer, there’s plenty to inspire you in their journey.
