“An odyssey worthy of Ulysses himself, a saga fit for the old Nordic Gods.” — Frederick Forsyth (excerpt from the forward of Giant Steps: by Karl Bushby)
The Goliath Expedition is Bushby's attempt to walk around the world "with unbroken footsteps", from Punta Arenas, Chile, to his home in Hull, England. He began his journey on November 1, 1998 and has since then traversed 19 countries and over 37,000 kilometers. He successfully crossed the Bering Straight and the Darien Gap and crossed the US a second time to lift a Visa ban in Russia.
She walks the earth
In 2014 Angela began a solo walk around the world, immersing herself in the solitude of nature while also learning from and connecting with the places and people she encountered along the way.

“ Not knowing what lies around the corner, what view awaits me, who I’ll meet and what I can learn, is where I thrive. I like getting a bit lost in the unknown and enjoying the journey.”
Over 6.5 years, across 4 continents, over 32,000 kilometers, 14 countries and a handful of islands, Angela discovered her innate courage, strength and conviction. She traversed desolate deserts, snow-capped mountains and bustling ancient cities....alone. Twelve pairs of shoes and too many cups of noodles consumed to count, she walked nearly the circumference of the earth.
