Lucy Barnard, Adventurer of the Year, walking the length of the world

“Four people start this adventure every year to make an attempt to get to Alaska, but usually everyone quits in the first year. Most people quit because they say they fall in love.” - Lucy Barnard Our guest on this episode of TFM is on a mission most of us would only dare dream about - to walk the length of the world. Yup, WALK. Currently on her 22nd pair of shoes, Lucy Barnard joins us with her trusty companion Wombat from Denver, Colorado - where she's prepping for the final part of the journey, which'll take two more years. 18 months if all goes to plan. On the menu is; King Crab empanadas after a week of misery, freshly cooked beef after stumbling upon a cottage during an alpine blizzard, Wombat's free food at markets on the Inca Trail, plus a bunch of insights you'd only hear from someone attempting this incredible feat.  Lucy's social cause is CLIMATE - a community led initiative to monitor alpine temperature extremes which Lucy is ambassador for, carrying a MeteoTracker with her to measure the weather along her journey. Follow @tanglesandtail for more epic adventuring. Send us Fan MailTo find out more about the project and Savva - head to threefoodmemories.comInsta - @savvasavas @threefoodmemoriesEmail us at [email protected], we'd love to hear from you!  TFM is produced and edited by Lauren McWhirter with original music by Russell Torrance.
