About

Long-distance hiking? Alone? As a woman? After an existential crisis, the loss of her mobility, and years of pain from bilateral hip osteoarthritis, Miranda-with no hiking experience-embarks on her personal adventure with her new porcelain hips. She hikes the GR34, also known as the Sentier des Douaniers, for 24 days, from the pirate town of Saint-Malo to Lannion - always with the sea in view. Not knowing exactly what to expect, she opens herself up to solitude, fascinating nature, and inspiring encounters. With every kilometer, her confidence grows - in herself, in life, and in humanity. It is a personal story about setting out and searching, about daring and trusting - and about realizing that life is not about arriving, but setting out.
