Homemade Wanderlust is the name of the hiking-themed YouTube channel operated by Jessica "Dixie" Mills. The channel originally gained popularity because of her Appalachian Trail thru-hiking vlogs, but Dixie would go on to become a Triple Crowner and document it on the channel. The channel also features gear reviews, advice and guides for people who want to do long distance backpacking, trail vlogs of other smaller trails, and one-off hikes and climbs.
The channel documented her completing the Appalachian Trail in 2015, the Pacific Crest Trail in 2017, and the Continental Divide Trail in 2018. Dixie was one of the first thru-hiking content creators to gain a lot of traction on YouTube, and as such is currently one of the largest channels in the niche, with almost 500,000 subscribers as of 2023.
