Walking is the great adventure

"Walking is the great adventure, the first meditation, a practice of heartiness and soul primary to humankind. Walking is the exact balance between spirit and humility."
Gary Snyder, The Practice of the Wild

  1. Hi Simon
    Have just returned from a weekend in Paris with my Mum. We stayed at Bougival, on the outskirts of the city. Every day, as our coach took us into the city, we passed through Nanterre and I thought of you going through the same area at the beginning of your walk. As you wrote - a 'depressing concrete development'. Still, it was worth it when we got into the centre of Paris.
    Be encouraged, know that we are praying for you and for your leg. Hope you manage to enjoy today's walk.
    God bless
