Shawnté is a perpetual daydreamer who enjoys writing, hiking, climbing, backpacking, traveling, photographing, eating, drinking...and thinking about all of the above. Her book 'Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail: Southern California' will be available in Fall 2017 via Mountaineers Books.

I am a curiosity-seeking, adventure-loving, outdoor-rambling professional word wrangler.
