Accidental Influencer - Madeline Hyrse (Part I)

Madeline Hryse has spent the last four years not having a home address, which is either the most impressive or most concerning sentence you'll hear all week, depending on how your mother feels about it. In Part 1, she explains how she went from walking across Asia to cycling from southern China to Sweden — a plan that, when said out loud, sounds like something you'd come up with at 2 a.m. and forget about by morning, except she actually did it. Highlights include the time she got 15 flat tires in a single day (personal record, not the good kind), a luxury camp chair that cycling purists would judge her for and she does not care, and a Hiking Poll score so low she immediately agreed it was fair. Also: how to travel for four years on $5,000 a year, why endless flat plains are worse than brutal mountains, and the art of pretending you're not slightly addicted to other people's grocery store splurges.
