Introduction Sonya Richmond and Sean Morton discovered a passion for hiking while at university together in Ontario, and have spent as much time as we can away from our computers ever since, hiking, kayaking, travelling, and camping across Canada. My love of birds, nature, and the outdoors led me to a career in conservation, while Sean has transitioned into the world of freelance writing and landscape photography. While we both spend quite a lot of our working days in front of computers, we take every opportunity we can to get outside and explore, disconnect from the digital world, and recharge. We completed our first medium-distance hike in 2016, when we walked 800 km along the Camino Frances, from St. Jean-Pied-de-Port, France to Santiago de Compostela, Spain. We followed this with a hike across France on the Via Podiensis in 2017. Since then we have trekked the Camino Portuguese across the length of Portugal, the Camino Madrid, Camino San Salvador, Camino Primitivo, Ontario's Bruce Trail, Newfoundland's beautiful East Coast Trail. We are currently crossing Canada on the 28,000 km along Trans Canada Trail!
