In Punta Arenas Chile in November 1998 Karl Bushby set out on one of the most remarkable journeys of modern times. His plan is as simple as it is extraordinary: to walk up the Americas across the Bering Strait through Asia Russia & Europe back through the Channel Tunnel & returning to Britain in 2011. It is a journey of remarkable endurance -- 20 miles a day 3 000 miles a year 36 000 miles in total. By the time Karl returns he will have crossed four continents twenty-five countries a frozen sea six deserts & seven mountain ranges. But more than that unlike other similar expeditions Karl is attempting it single-handed: no huge support teams no large sponsorship deals this is the inspiring true story of a man facing remarkable odds -- & winning.
