Lauren Roerick is a Canadian adventurer from Southern Alberta who discovered her passion for long-distance hiking in her 30s. After being inspired by a fellow hiker training for the Appalachian Trail, she embarked on the Pacific Crest Trail, igniting a love for thru-hiking. Since then, she has tackled challenging routes like the HexaTrek in France and the Te Araroa in New Zealand, embracing a "comfort light" approach to gear. Currently based in Vancouver, Lauren works as a set decorator for film and TV while funding her travels through vlogging, guidebooks, and outdoor sponsorships. Her next adventure takes her to Japan, where she and her brother will complete the 1,200-kilometer Shikoku pilgrimage.
