LTAW #24 at Zuccotti Park, Wall street


It's fascinating to walk through Zuccotti Park into this com-munity of diverse people who peacefully demand social and economic equality.
Little by little the park is transformed into a village of a sort, there is even a library. The place is now cramped with tents. Because of the sky scrapers surrounding the park there is very little sun.
I hope for the safety of the protesters.
As I was getting ready to start the walk a group of people gathered to participate in a workshop on Radical Economics 101

The walk ended with a wonderful encounter with the knitting grandmother
What about you, where did you take the walk from? if you have any footage please send them, to me via You sent it (at no cost to you).
Thank you so much for your support and participation.

LTAW #23 took place at Les Salaisons

La Nuit Blanche was fantastic but my favorite place was of course Laurent Quenehen's gallery Les Salaison in Romainsville featuring a group show of art and performances.
As part of this event had the pure pleasure of conducting Let's Take a Walk#23.
A big thank you to Anne-Marie Toffolo who was the town crier & Monsieur Mail.et the drummer as well as the help of Laurent and Julie. I did encountered tech difficulties but if you received the tweets thanks to my friend Valerie who not only took fantastic photos, but also called in the direction to Paul my tweet master.
If you followed the walk and filmed/photographed your journey please send them to me via You Send It
Until the next walk,
Love from Paris

the 22nd walk took place in the jungle

Our trip in Belize was fantastic, so good to be exploring wondrous places in the world. LTAW #22 took place in mid air as Taliana and I were rappelling over the caves and cliffs of the aptly named "The Black Hole"


Departure point,Saturday August 20th 11am Belize

The highlight of this experience was to look up and see Taliana who took the guide's challenge and "glided" down head first, with drops of rains falling around her... a moment not captured on film but embedded in my memory.

Thank you so much to all of you who took a picture at this moment. Please send your image to mariechristine@mindspring.com

Beside walking...

Going around New York City by bike & rollerblades is becoming the best way around beside walking thanks to the amazing bike passes.
