🎙️ Canoes, Connection & 24,000km of Wild: A Conversation with Dianne Whelan 🌲

Send us Fan MailIn this special episode, we sit down with award-winning Canadian filmmaker, author, and adventurer Dianne Whelan, whose film 500 Days in the Wild documents her epic solo journey across the entire 24,000 km of the Trans Canada Trail — by canoe, on foot, and in deep conversation with the land.But this episode goes beyond just the miles and the route. Dianne shares how she discovered a deep love of canoeing, the unexpected lessons from six years on the trail, and how the journey became more than just an expedition — it became a path to reconnection, healing, and respect for Indigenous knowledge and the Earth itself.If you’ve ever felt the pull to slow down, unplug, and listen more closely to the natural world, this conversation will resonate. Dianne’s insights are both powerful and poetic, and her story reminds us that adventure isn’t just about movement — it’s about meaning.-----------------------------------------------------Join the conversation: Facebook group Mailing list PatreonMore at: www.nanocruising.comSeas Your Own Adventure 🌊⛵
