A FREE Packing List For You - Inside


Hello friend!

I just returned from a writing retreat in Scotland... ✨ It was unlike any trip I've ever taken, and I can't wait to share more about that adventure with you in the near future, but for today, I have a little gift for you.

Yesterday a new episode of the podcast came out featuring my friend Vince Mazzuca over at Osprey Packs, and we talked about all things packing, travel, and the importance of getting outside and disconnecting. (Listen to it here or watch it on YouTube).

In the episode, I mention an adventure packing list that I created (and personally use, all the time), and I want to share it with YOU!

Packing for adventure travel is very specific, because you need to make sure you have the right layers for the right weather for the right activities, etc. Collecting the right gear can be daunting, which is why I've tried to make it easy for you. This is the same packing list I provide to all of my JUMP Adventures participants, and it can be adapted to fit any type of adventure. In it I share tips about luggage choice, clothing, and gear, including bullet point lists, and even links to some products I specifically recommend (with inspiring photos from a recent trip!).

Check it out and bookmark it so you can use it for your next adventure!

I hope you find it helpful, and I hope you can use it very soon!

💛 Jackie

Easter Island sunset dining

Hello and happy almost-November to you! I just recently returned from a month in South America, leading a group trip in Peru, attending the Adventure Travel World Summit in Chile, and... after 10 years of traveling to and from and around Chile, I finally made it to Easter Island! Known locally as Rapa Nui, Easter Island is one of the most remote inhabited islands on the planet. It's also a Chilean territory, and the only way to get there is to fly from Santiago – about a 4.5-hour flight WAY...

Happy September! I hope you had a great summer, mine was gloriously long and slow -- starting with 6 weeks in Europe, and then a couple solid months in Montana full of outdoor adventures, lots of ice hockey, and quality time with quality people. I can feel time speeding up now as I'm heading into my busier travel season, but before we get there, let's take a step back. We've had some incredibly inspiring people join us on the podcast this summer, and I am so impressed by them and the stories...
