Retha Charette: Hiker, Writer, and Adventurer | The Hiker Podcast

Welcome to The Hiker Podcast. This week I am excited to talk with hiker, writer, and adventurer Retha Charette.

Retha Charette is a long-distance hiker, travel writer, and adventure lover. As a lifetime member of the Girl Scouts, she learned at a young age how to get outside and make the perfect s'more. In 2015 after her divorce she decided to climb Mount Kilimanjaro on a whim. After that, there was no turning back from a life of adventure. Since then she started her blog, roamingnanny.com, to help women find adventure all over the world. She has trekked to Everest Base Camp, hiked the Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu, and in 2021 she took on her biggest adventure yet, thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail. Some of Retha's other loves include all things Disney (especially Donald Duck), rock climbing, watching old movies, and eating ice cream.
