Melanie Derry
Melanie has spent 16 years teaching third-graders, and has also taught teens the wonders of wilderness camping, so we know she can handle the WomanTours crowd (wink wink). The Asheville, NC resident is also an avid cyclist, mother, chef, gardener and dog lover.
"Melanie was consistently engaging and thoughtful to everyone. She is the epitome of a GREAT trip leader. It was a joy to watch her in action! And amazing driving skills!"
