One Woman Walks Europe
Description of book
The bestselling author of One Woman Walks Wales travels from Ukraine to the UK. 'As long as I walk every step, everything else I do to stay alive and keep on walking is good enough.' In this epic test of stamina and will, 5500 miles over 2 years, Ursula starts in Kyiv and crosses Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, France, Spain and the UK. Ursula brings to life the challenging landscapes and people she meets, and tests her limitations, confronting her childhood, past relationships and life-changing illness, realising how much she needs community, while pushing it away. When Covid forces her to lockdown in France, we share her loneliness and determination, as she waits it out and begins again, crossing the Camino de Santiago, and coming home to Wales. A life-changing walk for Ursula and for every reader who takes this journey with her.
