Welcome to Episode 6 of Season 3, where we meet the ray of sunshine Erica Forrest! Angie Drake (Season 2, Ep 2) recommended that we meet and chat with Erica and we had a lovely time getting to know her! Erica is a travel education consultant, published author, and founder of Trip Scholars (https://tripscholars.com), where she combines 30 years of experience in education with research and the discoveries made through her own travels. More than just a trip planning service, she guides clients on how to prepare before travel, immerse themselves more fully while they’re on the road, and reflect afterward to transform their trips into lasting, enriching experiences. Erica was an incredibly generous guest! She shouted out the North Cascades Institute (https://ncascades.org). Since 1986, the North Cascades Institute has helped connect people, nature and community through the hands-on study of the natural and cultural history of the Pacific Northwest. Their mission is to inspire environmental stewardship through transformative learning experiences in nature – a lot like Erica!
