Living on the Pacific Crest Trail

I downsized my life last year and bought a tiny cabin right on the Pacific Crest Trail in Southern California. I'm the first house that hikers come to (about 200 miles from the beginning of the trail in Mexico).

Wealthy Affiliate has given me the confidence and skills to start my own Web Design and SEO company. I'm also building an affiliate marketing niche site around my offline business. And, it allows me to work from home, helping hikers as a PCT Trail Angel. I've already built several websites for local companies and feel like I have some great momentum going. All through my training here at WA.

Now, while I'm not a multi-millionaire (yet), I can fully see how the training and support here at WA has helped me reach my goals thus far. And, I set some additional goals yesterday to take me through the rest of this year.

At times it seems overwhelming and that you're not really moving the bar. But, take a minute to step back and you'll see what you've accomplished. Good luck everyone!

You are in a very scenic area Vic. It looks like you aren't far from where US 8 crosses the Sierra Nevada from San Diego to the Arizona border. The rocks in the area look like they come from the roadrunner cartoon series!

Now you can plan to hike further north and see some wondrous sites!

Hi Mike...yes, I'm pretty close to there. Just outside of Palm Springs. The rocks definitely do remind of you of the roadrunner cartoons for sure.

I'd love to hike the whole trail but, for now, just doing sections. It is beautiful.
