When you plan an undertaking that has meaning beyond yourself, you’re sure to have an extra boost of motivation when things get tricky. But the expectation that comes with it can feel heavy. Laurent experienced this when he followed the path his family took to flee the Spanish dictatorship in the 1920s.
On the centenary of their journey, and to honor their grit, Laurent set off to follow their original route, calling the project “La Esperanza” (“The Hope” in Spanish), running from Ayerbe, in Spain to Lourdes, in France in four days.
Lucky for us, he’s captured the story in writing, giving us a unique glimpse into this special journey. Enjoy!
