CURRENT MISSION

I crave to deeply feel and better understand myself and the world around me...

ABOUT ME

I'm passionate about meeting and learning from all kinds of unique people. I love long-distance walking and deep conversation - esp. related to topics on equality, faith, transit, philosophy, living simply, gardening, travel, adventures, risk...

Personal Twitter Handle: @jonathonstalls

My work is all about helping people connect to the endless benefits of seeing the world by foot... www.walk2connect.com // @walk2connect

Ever since my walk across the USA in 2010 (kivawalk.com) I've been forever changed by the power in trusting strangers.

PHILOSOPHY

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.
Woodrow T. Wilson
