Travelling barefoot

I wonder how many of you have ever experienced the joys of travelling barefoot? I’m not talking about a weekend trip, I’m talking about travelling for many weeks or month without even carrying any shoes, staying bare everywhere… I’ve spent YEARS on the road, travelling, exploring, always barefoot... Covering thousands of kilometres on my bare soles, I’ve made friends on many continents… “Barefoot, free and happy”, that’s my motto! It’s an exciting experience to roam around without any footwear in my backpack, trusting in my leather-like soles toughened over many years. And it’s definitely the most environment-friendly way of travelling, especially if it comes to activities like hiking in ecologically sensitive regions (e.g. the Indian Himalayas)! For those of you being concerned about health issues: I’m living barefoot for more than six years now, and I didn’t face ANY problem – except having to remove a little thorn from time to time, but even that happens rarely! For me, being barefoot isn’t just a fashion statement: It’s a lifestyle, a way to express myself… And of course an amazing sensual experience: Walking barefoot I’m far more “in touch”, in touch with nature, with Mother Earth… Energy can flow freely, I’m never disconnected. Walking barefoot is special!
