Adventure StoryI dreamt of its planes that end where the eyes can no longer discern
the line between earth and sky. August 14th 2008 the layout of my
future journey appeared very clearly to me; a beautiful line that links
north and south. From that day forward my journey has become so obvious
to me and has been named “ExplorAsia 2010-2012”.
Alone with the
elements; my only companion will be the rhythm of my own footsteps. The
strength of my legs and the quickness of my feet will carry me through
this incredible, 20’000 Km long epic. I have always
found a second wind at the end of my personal limits. And so once
again, I will set out alone on foot to reunite with a little tree I met
a few years back. It grows at this specific location:
GPS : S32°23.002 E124°36.972
It’s where the running wind never stops; where the earth meets the ocean… in Southern Australia.
More than a journey it’s a philosophy of movement...
