How to Get Out Into the Wilderness This Summer

Author: Condé Nast Traveler July 25, 2024 Duration: 23:06
Last time Lale chatted with outdoors expert and Condé Nast Traveler contributor Emily Pennington she was fresh off her book tour for Feral, a memoir chronicling her mission to visit every national park in the US. This week, Emily rejoins us in the studio to talk about what she’s been up to since then, including adventures in Patagonia, how she’s prioritizing her wellbeing while still exploring the outdoors, and her tips for getting out into the wilderness in exciting—and safe—ways.

There’s a whole world of travel stories that often go unheard, and Women Who Travel | Condé Nast Traveler brings them to the forefront. Guided by editor Lale Arikoglu, this podcast moves beyond typical guides and itineraries to explore the personal, sometimes complicated, realities of navigating the globe. You’ll hear conversations with a wide range of female-identifying travelers, each episode uncovering specific, vivid tales-whether that’s the quiet challenge of going off-grid in Denmark or the profound independence found in solo journeys across multiple countries. Lale weaves in her own global experiences and insights from the Condé Nast Traveler team, creating a space that feels like an honest chat with well-traveled friends. It’s about the connections made, the unexpected hurdles overcome, and the unique perspectives women carry with them. By focusing on these narratives, the series naturally expands what travel means, making it an essential listen for anyone curious about the deeper layers of culture, place, and personal discovery. Tune in for a fresh, grounded take on adventure.
