My Travel Story

by: Joel Kickliter Start Date: Oct 28, 2020 - End Date: Oct 27, 2021
My beautiful wife and I decided to give up our home and possessions to backpack across America on foot to finally live life to it's fullest, experience all of nature, and to volunteer where we are able.
My wife is disabled and before her conditions worsen we are living her dream to travel.
We are currently in Colorado down in a canyon where a sudden blizzard with wind gusts up to 70mph destroyed our camp and froze our bedding.
There is a fire-ban in effect so we must be moving along now. We have run out of funds and need more survival gear. For now we want to raise $5,000 to get the things we need and have an emergency funding backup for situations like this one.
Please help me to keep my wife and I going to fullfill her lifelong dream!!

Sincerely,
Joel
