Trekking the Empty Quarter, moving to France to be a Dog Nanny, and Wild Camping with Janey McGill
Listen now
Description
S1, Ep 7: Janey McGill credits her father with her sense of adventure.  Since she was a little girl, she's always had a love for the great outdoors and horses, and for a short while, she was raised in Vegas. A nasty accident while riding meant she was forced to give up her career in the military, but she hasn't let that hinder her travel plans.   From moving to France to nanny a blind dog and several horses, to trekking for 28 days across the desert,  Janey's travel tales are certainly unique. Janey's need for a challenge, combined with her intolerance to sitting at an office desk all day, and her fascination with the Middle East, led her to taking on a major expedition across the Empty Quarter in Oman with two other women.  Janey and Laura discuss her expedition, some of the beauty spots to be seen along the British coastline, wild camping, and overcoming life's challenges.
