My Story
This is Jason Jamar and the Long Journey Podcast, detailing my travels across America as I share thrilling stories from my 16-month backpacking trek from California to Maine and my eight-month kayak voyage from Maine to Texas.
The Hike
On September 20, 1999, I embarked on a two-and-a-half-year journey. A trek on foot over 4,000 miles from San Diego, CA, to St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada – just across the international bridge from Calais, ME.
The Paddle
I then constructed a 20′ sea kayak at the oldest boat building school in America and paddled from Freeport, ME, to Marble Falls, TX, accompanied by my trusty four-legged companion, a husky/red healer mix named BJ.

The adventure was a sojourn into self-discovery and an opportunity to learn firsthand about our nation.
