The Hardest Path: A Journey Outside to Answer the Questions Within

On the Japanese island of Shikoku, amidst mountains, coasts, and bamboo forests, lies one of the worlds most sacred trails—the eighty-eight-temple pilgrimage.

Inspired by Paulo Coelho, the author of The Alchemist, and driven by dissatisfaction with the day-to-day grind, Matt Jardine embarks on a journey in search of answers to life’s great questions, mysteries that confound us all.

Heartfelt, accessible, humorous, and profound, what he discovers is that the hardest path is rarely the one we walk outside, but the one we walk within.
