Attempting 30,000 km across the world, with my dog, on foot

Lucy Barnard is making an attempt to become the first woman to walk the length of the Earth. It's a 30 000 km journey from the bottom of Argentina to the top of Alaska. She travels with her dog, Wombat, who is possibly on the longest dog walk of all time! This film is about crossing Peru, along 500 year old roads, known today as the Incan Trails.

    Hi Lucy! We are all incredibly proud of you, and I'm looking forward to seeing the next chapter in your adventure. I'm saving your videos to show to my niece. She's a bit too young to understand the enormity of your accomplishment as she's only 3 years old right now, but I think you're a fantastic role model and an example of what she'll be able to achieve when she puts her mind to it (though she is already demonstrating her incredible determination and tenacity by emotionally manipulating her uncle into secretly giving her slices of mango when her mum isn't looking). We love you Lucy! Go get 'em! =)

I camp out of a van some of the time and keep two 20000 mah battery banks, two 60w power delivery charging blocks, and two USBC to USBC cables in my backpack. I find that if I recharge them when they're half empty it only takes a couple of hours, and I've been told that keeping them at least half full makes them live longer. Do you do your videos with a phone only? I don't imagine that one 20k mah battery would power a laptop for very long, or even a tablet.
