Cool New Finds

Here are some things (articles, gear, blogs etc., …) I have enjoyed, am loving!

“I’ll walk on it” – Chrissie Swan. I loved this podcast and was intrigued by how walking became such an integral part of Chrissie’s life changing journey into living her life – on her terms.

Whatever the Problem, It’s Probably Solved by Walking is an opinion article written for the NY times by Andrew McCarthy. The title is such a truism that I imagine it’s probably an ancient proverb. For anyone who loves a good walk, it is a brilliant feel good reminder of why we do!

Pilgrim routes in Europe, it’s not only in Spain that you can find pilgrim hiking trails. This article shares 10 of Europe’s best. Oooh do tell, is there one that calls you? I am drawn to St Olav’s Way, Norway, I’m a sucker for a farmers meal! I am also a bit excited about the stretch of the Via Francigena in Switzerland. This is along my from ‘Home to Rome’ camino which reminds me – I really must get back to this and plan my next leg.
