About the Author
In 2013, Greg and Jen left the corporate world, where work more, spend more was the mantra, and moved to Costa Rica. They became experts on the country and each wrote Amazon best-selling books on the subject of chucking it all and moving to Costa Rica. Jen also has a successful jewelry business, which she started in Costa Rica. After four years of enjoying Costa Rica and a new fondness for hiking in the mountains of the Central Valley where they lived, the couple was ready for something new. What could be more challenging than spending six months thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail? Starting on Springer Mountain, Georgia and ending on Mount Katahdin, Maine, their thru-hike was the adventure of a lifetime. Along the way they posted daily vlogs about their journey on YouTube. What's next? Stay tuned as Greg and Jen take on the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile pilgrimage walk in Spain. Greg and Jen's philosophy: work to live; don't live to work. Their lifestyle: chase adventure, not the dollar.
