Discover the inspiring story of one man's life-changing journey alone across the Australian Outback.
From the majesty of Uluru and its surrounding deserts to the rugged grandeur of the Kimberley and Pilbara landscapes, the Australian Outback inspires a deep connection with the timeless wisdom of the natural world. It is a place where this wisdom reveals itself in many ways, each day, when the walkabout soul allows themselves to be seduced by the physical and spiritual magnificence of this ancient land.
On being liberated from his career in New York in 2001, author Lachlan Hughson returned to the quiet and rugged beauty of the Australian Outback, undertaking a 2-year walkabout to reconnect with the rich teaching available from the natural world. Through following in the footsteps of his kindred spirits-the explorers and drovers, adventurers and poets from Australian history-his unique journey reintroduced him to the healing power of nature and the inspiration that comes from spending time alone immersed in its unadultered grandeur.
In an age where so many of us are disconnected from the vitality of the natural world, and our own intrinsic capacity for health, Walkabout to Wisdom is a motivational story that seeks to reawaken our spirit of adventure, guiding and challenging us to reconnect with the wisdom of the natural world and to cultivate a deep and enduring appreciation for our ultimate home-the Earth.
With reviews from leading Australian environmentalists and authors, and a foreword from one of Australia's most respected songwriters, this story will leave you enchanted and enthralled so important is its heartfelt message today.
