Part adventure travel log and part love letter to the joys of walking, this autobiographical book is set around the author's trek of the West Highland Way in Scotland with her twin sister. The story uses the simple act of walking to discover a sense of grounding during the ordinary dramas of mid-life, including dealing with the loss of parents and disenchantment with career life. The book shares insights from several other adventurous hikes, but always returns to the everyday pleasures of Just Walking.
