Dear Paul Salopek,
Hi, I’m Tyler, and I’m in the 7th grade at St. Martins-in-the-field Episcopal School. I think what you’re doing is really cool. I want to wish you the safest travel, and I wish I could walk with you, too. I’m looking forward to seeing all the photos and videos on your website and blog. I hope you have some cool photos and adventures. Seven years of travel is a long journey, and I think this is a great idea to travel the same path in 7 years when our ancestors took 60,000 years. It is also cool that you’re recording the footsteps you’re taking. About 30,000,000 steps, that’s a lot! I hope you arrive at your destination safely and have a safe travel!
Tyler
