Anna recently had the pleasure of talking with Paul Schmid on his podcast The Pursuit Zone about her experiences cycle touring in America. She first discovered Paul's podcast when she was in Kansas and trying to keep herself entertained while crossing the endless stretches of monotonous prairie. She soon found herself hooked.  You can listen to their conversation here or at The Pursuit Zone on Spotify. While you’re there make sure to check out the other episodes and be inspired by all the courageous people out there who are breaking out of their comfort zones.

During the summer Anna gave a talk to her local community about what it was like to see the United States from the seat of a bicycle. It was an incredibly rewarding evening with some really engaging questions from the audience. Thank you to everyone who attended, your support means so much. For those that couldn't be there, the talk is available on YouTube.
