Talk about living light… walking for 22 years with just a pack on your back…
John Francis lived a wild adventure and wrote a book about it. Planetwalker: 22 Years of Walking. 17 Years of Silence.
The book gives the details of an interesting life but the book is NOT a well told story.
The book is more like a dry diary. I wish he told more stories of what happened instead of the linear facts of what happened. I wish he told more about his thoughts and feelings along the way. So much potential was missed. Oh well….
