  • “it was never going to be about this moment…”
    With everything going on in the world right now, it’s heartbreaking knowing that beyond the severe impact COVID-19 will have in all measures globally, so many hikers will be postponing their experience this year. I hope I can bring some light.

    Dear Elina,
    my heart is breaking a little about the end of your story. What a joy in such weird times.
    You, taking us through the beauty of nature, the rough parts on the way, the big moments and the small ones, was such a welcome break of reality. It has reminded me of some of the wants and needs that I have been putting too far out of mind.
    Please continue telling stories, please keep sharing your way at looking at things, we need this clear view at the moment more than ever.
    Thank you!
    Love and loads of appreciation from Germany.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to share with me.
      It is such a bizarre time right now, and it warms my heart to hear that something I’ve written, spoken, created has had some impact on you.
      I endeavour to keep telling stories; there are so many out there and many of people without voices. Take care and keep spreading your light!
      Lots of love from New Zealand.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your journey. I remember when your first video of the series "It is the People" popped up on my RUclips feed, and it changed my life. The way you tell a story and make your audience feel all of the things is so damn amazing. It made me feel all of the emotions you felt throughout your journey in just 16 minutes. It helped me realize I was the only one holding myself back from many things. It helped me break through this barrier in my brain that I didn't even know was holding me back from so much. In just 16 minutes, I felt more emotion than I had in so long. After that, I was determined. Determined to make my life what I wanted. Determined to be a badass in every way possible. Determined to just let go of everything that was holding me back and simply... be. You have touched so many people with your videos more than you realize, including me. Thank you for sharing your journey and unknowingly help me realize "Life is unpredictable. Life is short. Life needs to be worth living."

There's such beauty in the simplicity of them and I can tell you are a wonderful soul full of love and warmth, but also strength and endurance you didn't know you had. You've ignited a spark in me, not only to backpack more and enjoy the beauty of our earth, but also to realize that life is too precious to rush through. We can't just rush through, keep busy, go on to the next thing. Sometimes all we need is to just slow down and appreciate the incredible things we've experienced and the unbreakable bonds we have made.

    Elina, I cried watching this final leg of your journey. Thank you for sharing your voice, energy, and time to document while doing one of the most INTENSE treks across the US. It may not be viewed by millions as it should, but most certainly is finding its way to the people that need it. I'm one of those people! Thank you. Best wishes to your many adventures ahead.

    This has been the most beautiful journey to follow along with you on. Thank you for creating this. I've had a real tough time of life just recently, and your videos have genuinely kept little old me motivated and pushing through. An adventure never ends, it merely changes direction. Here's to the next bit. Thank you 😊

    What a bittersweet ending. I’m in love with your channel and these videos. It’s feels like I’ve been through this journey and I can’t wait to truly hike the PCT

    This is a bitter sweet moment watching your adventure finish. I’ve followed knowing that I was getting a glimpse of my 2020 PCT adventure. Each week my excitement built. Unfortunately today I made the heart breaking realisation that I wouldn’t be doing the PCT in 2020. I put off watching initially because I was too gutted to see what had been taken from me, but I’m glad I did. Although it still hurts knowing I won’t be out there in 10 days like planned, I’m glad to see your adventures climax and am now hardened to make sure I get my turn. Thank you for such an amazing series and congratulations

    Urgh! @caminosoosie started crying, then I followed as we sat down and made a ritual of watching your final chapter!! What an amazing journey for you to share with us. We are sooo very grateful for these fabulous 'chapters' - what a gift for all of us that love the suffering and joy of walking day after day. Ngā mihi nui.

    Watching these videos help me to escape my boundaries while I’m at work. This series has gotten me back in touch with a side of me that I nearly forgot. The story has created the inspiration for me and my wife to start hiking and camping together and has helped to strengthen our relationship with something we can do together. Hopefully one day I’ll have a story of my own that will give someone else what yours has started for me.

    Watching this was an honor. It is so expertly made and it always has your attention while you watch. This is without a doubt my most favorite hiking/outdoor videos. I really hope you do more and aim to get a triple crown because this was such a pleasure to watch. Great job!

    This is one of two stand out hiking series from the 2019 season. It was really fantastic. The way you shot it, and the way you told it. It's amazing. You should be very proud of what you've accomplished, both on the trail and creatively.
    I'm just sad that it's over.

    I think this is the 4th time I watch this whole series now. It is world class!! The song combined with the clips leading up to the monument is just perfect.

    One of the best pct docs I've seen.
    Full of heart and great music.
    The continuity is top notch right down to the hi-5 photo at the terminus.
    Well done 👏

    that is one of the coolest photos with you reaching out from each monument and then putting them together as if you are touching. Very well thought out!
