She's created the HPL Packing Method (HPM) - a course that teaches women how to pack in a personal item - or handbag! - for a one-week trip. herpackinglist.com She once traveled for 3 weeks in a 12L messenger bag. And also for 2.5 weeks in an 8L handbag. Brooke has mastered the art of minimalist packing - it's something she teaches others how to do inside her HPL Packing Method course. “And it's part of the method that has changed everything for many of my HPM students as well. To understand how much happier, lighter, and more PREPARED we can be without all the extras is priceless. Oh, and how much more time, energy, and MONEY we can have for the actual travel experience is just the icing on the cake!” Let Brooke help you, too, to become a more confident and less weighed down traveler. | WORK WITH BROOK: The main way to work with Brooke is through the HPL Packing Method course.

Finding Our Inspiration in Lancaster, California

3/27/2023
www.destinationlancasterca.org 57 MURALS and counting!! Take the Mural tour! visit: lancastermoah.org/antelope-valley-walls Just Northwest of Los Angeles, hidden in rolling hills, lies an unexpected and inspiring jewel, waiting to be discovered by you: Lancaster, California. Being artists and songwriters, we are always on the hunt for inspiration to give us new ideas, fresh perspectives, and interesting stories. Lancaster did not disappoint. And inspiration is waiting there for you, as well. Spring is the perfect time to visit Lancaster. The drive from Los Angeles takes you through beautiful countryside, as the winter rains (yes, even in Southern California) give rise to happy hills of lush green grass and flowers. In the distance you can still see snow capped mountains and the windmills that lead you to Tehachapi. The enchanting drive calls you to explore. As you approach exit 162 for CA-14 North, the hills open to reveal the broad dessert valley that houses Lancaster, Antelope Valley. And like 19th century prospectors struck with gold fever, the dream of discovering this gem drew us in. We found inspiration in 3 major categories: Nature, Flight, and Art. We cover these areas in depth and share a story or two in this episoe. NATURE Enjoy the sunshine and beautiful scenery. Lancaster is full of inspiring and unique parks! Here are a few highlights: Prime Dessert Woodland Preserve is like a walk through living history. An easy trail and clearly marked paths take you through various segments of desert landscape. And, along the way, experience an infusion of local art as you sneak up on occasional animal sculptures spaced throughout this peaceful, tranquil experience. Spring is an ideal time to visit Lancaster and walk through fields of orange California poppies in the Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve. In this California State Park, even purple and white flowers make an appearance. In order to keep the fields in a strictly natural state, California State Parks does not water or stimulate the flowers. The park service also excludes sheep and cattle from grazing the hillsides. Up until the early 1970s, sheep once grazed the buttes in the western Antelope Valley. If you’re into really awesome geology, which I personally dig, you will find awesome sandstone formations just near Lancaster! Like The Devil’s Punchbowl with wonderful hikes, and even horse riding. And if you enjoy these sandstone formations, you can day trip from Lancaster and explore Vasquez Rocks Natural Area and Nature Center, and Red Rock Canon State Park, which has The Red Cliffs Trail. The Apollo Community Regional Park provides a scenic, peaceful walking area with multiple ponds filled with ducks and water fowl that seem eager to accept any stale bread you might bring along. Maybe bring a picnic and enjoy the picnic seating and save a crust from you Thanks for your ongoing support! http://paypal.me/TheROAMies Alexa and Rory The ROAMies Please subscribe, rate and share our podcast!

Bethlehem, West Bank VPN: The issue with connecting to any random internet network is that open connections are often vulnerable to cyber-attacks. For one, business and casual travelers alike have no choice but to use open and free networks when the occasion deems it necessary. Putting their devices on shared connection points means a higher risk of discovery by unsavory internet lurkers, with the threat of getting their data exploited or stolen. For those who like to work outside the confines of home or the office, VPN acts as a safeguard against open or semi-open networks like the free Wi-Fi provided by cafes, hotels, libraries and other public spaces. Some countries such as China and Indonesia have blocked popular online streaming sites, and content sites including Netflix and Hulu are region locked. If you would like to access geographically restricted content, VPN is the known key to the digital door.
