After a childhood of moving from one suburban neighborhood to the next, Jonathon Stalls felt starved for connection–to anything or anyone. In a quest to find community, he set out with nothing but his own two feet to carry him from Delaware to California. The awkward, exhilarating, and at times terrifying challenges he faced over the next 8 months helped him tear down the walls around his long-standing isolation.
You can learn more about two projects that Jonathon has started, Walk2Connect, which hosts 50-70 walks across the country each week, and Intrinsic Paths.
