Keremeye'us - A Walking Journey Across North America

While caring for his handicapped elderly father, the Author fills the long silences planning for a great walking journey. Requiring a means in which to carry his equipment, he constructs a Rickshaw from scrap metal and used bicycle parts on the floor of the small apartment. When the time comes, the Author sets out on a trans-continental trek from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland, pulling all he owns behind him in the Rickshaw. Though epic in its physical and mental accomplishments, the journey is full of laughter and reflection. At first only self interested, the Author soon finds he carries with him the infectious gift of inspiration. Keremeye'us is about simplicity, kindness and most of all it is about freedom in its most basic forms.
