Eight and a half years ago, Paul Salopek set out on a long walk: 21,000 miles across four continents. He’s still walking.
The journey took our species perhaps 50,000 years. Salopek, a California-born journalist, figured he could do it in seven. The reward, he said, has been meeting other humans of almost infinite variety: cattle-herding nomads in Ethiopia, farmers in Pakistan, a cobbler inAnd migrants, millions of migrants — some driven by war or disorder; others by economic crisis or climate change..“Sitting down” — that is, settling in one place — “is relatively recent,” he told me. “Moving around is in our limbic memory.”
In his travel, he has run into five wars — in Ethiopia, the West Bank, Syria, Kurdistan and Afghanistan — and a military coup inAnd yet he has taken positive lessons so far: Most of the world is at peace, and most humans are good.“Five wars is a lot of wars to walk through, but there’s an awful lot of peace in between,” he said. “This will sound Pollyannaish, I know.”“I must have more than 200 books in my Kindle,” he said.
