OUT OF EDEN WALK

Yesterday, Paul took his first steps on the trail since last winter, heading out into the Caucasian dawn with Central Asia on the horizon. To send him off, I asked our international community of Out of Eden Walk followers to submit scenes from their neighborhoods, in the style of Glances videos from Paul’s Milestones. The results were impressive — dozens of glimpses of ordinary life from around the world. Here’s a small selection:

Dust, sweat, and goats on a farm in New South Wales, Australia:

The violet hour in Perth, Australia:

Prairie grass illuminated, Minnesota:

The indefinable moment when summer shifts to fall, in Sweden:

Dusk at Nigatsu temple, Japan:

Women slow dance in a New Delhi temple, India:

A musical downpour in Chennai, India:
