“One day I will leave…” thought this Sclossian. And then one day, he retired and left!
Religious quest? No, Robert does not believe in God. “I always thought that travel is one of the privileged moments in the quest for happiness. A body in motion lives and discovers. We will all be still one day, preventing oneself from living should be more frightening than death,” he writes.
On his “Itinerancy,” he recounts, day by day, these walks of 18 to 30 km.
On June 30th, he finishes his “1,550 km guided play”: It’s “the end of the journey.” “I learned that itinerancy is an opportunity for new experiences that naturally broaden one’s knowledge. Evolving day by day towards unknown places teaches one to master the fear of the unexplored, the foreign. It is also about learning to better understand death; this ultimate unknown,” writes Robert Cottalorda in the preface of his book “Itinerancy.”
