To walk a path is to know it & bring it into meaning.
I have completed a significant number of pilgrimages and walks at some of the most sacred UNESCO World Heritage sites: Rila Monastery, Bulgaria · Tasmanian Wilderness Heritage Area, Australia · West Norwegian Fjords, Norway · Banks of the Seine, Paris, France · Kew Gardens, London, UK · Borobudur, Indonesia · Kathmandu Valley, Nepal · Angkor Wat, Cambodia · The Eternal City, Rome-Italy · Monserrat Monastery, Spain · Sydney Harbour Bridge, Australia · The Great Wall, China · The Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto, Japan.
It has been the greatest privilege of my life to walk the earth and be received by its many worlds. Each place asked nothing of me but to arrive in peace and make memories.
Reaching the Km 100 milestone on the Camino de Santiago, I leave a shell from my mother’s collection. She walked with me in spirit · 2025
