Solo Trip Gone Wrong

After days of solo road tripping through Manitoulin Island—complete with waterfalls, tacos, ferries, and stealth camping—my body hit a wall. A sudden IBS flare, dehydration, and pure exhaustion forced me to slow down and cut the trip short. In this final vlog of the series, I share the messy, unfiltered truth of what it looks like when you're done. From parking lot survival tactics to sleeping in a Walmart for the first time, this wasn’t the ending I expected… but it’s exactly what I needed. Thanks for coming along for this journey.
