  • The Mustard Seed: Sea G Rhydr’s Covered Wagon Voyage Through America

    Sea G Rhydr is heading through America in her tiny yellow wagon the Mustard Seed, pulled by her Shetland Theodore, her miniature horse Franklin and her Corgi Thick.

    She recently caught up with me straight from the wagon to talk about the first 200 miles of her voyage: the runaways, the wagon pole bent like a hump back whale and the field interviews she is doing with people across America.

    Listen to our conversation here on the Travel Grit podcast.
