A Coast-to-Coast 350-Mile Trek Across the Rural French Countryside
Trading corporate careers in London for a journey on foot, journalist Miles Morland and his wife, Guislaine, set out to walk across France from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea. This charming travel memoir records their 350-mile trek across rural provinces, canal paths, and regional vineyards.
Morland writes with dry British humor about blisters, heavy packs, village bistros, regional wines, and daily encounters with rural French locals, presenting an unpretentious portrait of slow travel and mid-life redirection.
Why You’ll Love This Book
Miles Morland shares a witty, grounded account of long-distance walking through rural France. A delightful read for fans of European walking memoirs, French countryside culture, and mid-life adventure stories.
