The struggles of walking 30 km per day | Via Francigena

In August-September 2021 I participated to the four-month event Road to Rome. It’s been a four month relay race along the whole Via Francigena, from Northern France to Southern Italy. I contributed by walking with the group for eight days, in order to promote slow travel and sustainable tourism. While walking I filmed a documentary that I then distributed for free on my TH-cam channel.

Let’s live slower. Let’s travel slower. Let’s make time to enjoy the little things.
Thank you,

What a beautiful countryside hike . I’ve done some long walks in my day
(Good memories)

[@karlvolkert9024]

What a beautiful video, I can literally smell the scent of this beautiful landscape. I like this type of hiking, I also practiced it in the 80s and I can remember impressive tours, also on Lake Bolsena, on Lake Trasimeno, in the crete south of Siena, on a tour in the Chianti area from Strada to Greve. And don't forget around Fiesole with a nice distant view of Brunell's Dome in Florence.
Goditi la vita, è breve !

Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Mr Krabs sold SpongeBob’s soul for 62 cents 😕🌱

[@fiorellarodriguez1080]

Hello Mary Jane, can you share where did you find the group or tour to do the walk? I found the page online with the description of the walking trail, but I´m going alone and I would like to join a group of people. Thank you

[@WhatashameMaryJane]

Hi Fiorella. Ours was a special event for the 20 years of the association. This video is a little extract of a full documentary I did on the experience, if you go on my playlists you’ll find it. The first few minutes of it I explain everything.
I know that the association organizes several group walks a year. Go to their website and look for it (link in the description of my documentary). If you don’t find them send them an email and they’ll help you.

[@curiousnomadic]

Wow you walker you.

[@fakeit6339]

[@WhatashameMaryJane]

Stealing? We were't really stealing 😄

[@alinbogdansamusan4954]
