In Green

'I need to ride now, to explore, to uncover more life; to reach strangers, to feel danger and to learn; to share this old, slow way, with man's patient, most forgiving and most loyal friend - the horse.'

In his mid-twenties, restless in the routine of a city, Louis D. Hall found himself wondering how to create the life he wanted to lead. Inspired by Don Quixote, he decided to fulfil a childhood dream - to make an uncharted journey on horseback.

After finding his horse Sasha in Italy's Apennine Mountains, the pair set off and headed west for Cape Finisterre, 'the end of the land', unprepared for most of the dangers - snow, storms, wolves - that faced them. He was even less prepared for the lessons that both Sasha and the young woman who joins them part way taught him about life's potential and its complexities.
