Drawing on her experience walking the ancient Via Francigena from Lucca to Rome, Carolyn will share practical tips, training ideas, and the joys of slow travel on foot. Discover how to get ready 'physically, mentally and logistically' for a walking adventure, while savouring stories of Italian landscapes, art, food, wine, and culture along the way. Enjoy some delicious Italian treats as you experience the spirit of a long, slow journey before you set out on your own or join Carolyn on one of her wonderful adventures.
