Synopsis

Limited time! Support the podcast through Patreon and receive a Be Bold bracelet or Be Bold baseball cap! ***** Cassandra Overby is the author of a new book called Explore Europe on Foot. And it is, obviously, all about enjoying Europe through walking. I'm talking anything from day walks to multi-day hikes. This book is pretty awesome. It’s a guide that makes walking through Europe really accessible. When I first heard about the book, I thought it would be interesting to me because Jon and I have talked about doing a hut to hut trip, perhaps in the Alps. But as I dug into Explore Europe on Foot, I realized that Cass is really advocating for a different kind of travel, a different way of thinking about it. And it doesn’t have to include some big hut to hut experience or a multi-mile pilgrimage (although she includes those in the book as well), but it can just be a way to enjoy a slower pace of travel by exploring the countryside on foot wherever you are. She didn’t start out as this kind of traveler, and that’
