Driving thousands of miles solo across North America is one thing, driving all the way from New York to Alaska is a whole different beast. Welcome to Part 1 of my 3-part epic journey across the continent!

​In this episode, we kick things off in NY and push all the way to the edge of Alaska. Along the way, we cross into Canadian territory, hit the longest straight stretch of highway in Canada, experience late-night North Dakota lightning shows, and navigate the start of the iconic Alaska Highway.

​Special shoutout to Grand & Essex for getting me set up with custom frozen kosher meals for the road, because when you’re driving 14+ hours a day through remote wilderness, good food keeps the entire trip alive!

​Subscribe and hit the bell so you don’t miss Part 2 as we cross directly into Alaska!
