Kevin & Kathy are professional hikers who have hiked 484,000-foot mountains in New Hampshire and 674,000-foot mountains in New England. They are a New-England based married couple who love traveling and hiking domestically and internationally. As two educators (Kevin is a middle school science teacher and Kathy is a Ph.D. candidate in higher education), they feel lucky to have school breaks that allow them to travel together! Kathy is always on the move, balancing a job and school commitments. Although she enjoys being a teacher, finding time for self-care may be difficult. She first discovered the meditative benefits of yoga a decade ago but Kevin introduced her to hiking years later.
