By getting outside on your own, you'll start to feel more mentally prepared for the solo adventures ahead 🙂
I've recently started watching the TV show Yellowstone, and I love it! It makes me want to go back to Montana. I love the show for the horses, the big pastures, the mountains, the log cabins, the slow pace of life, and the inclusion of Indigenous peoples.
