In this interview, we talk to Valerie Thatcher, an
activist, author, and initiator of the Walk for Europe, about the
life-changing experience of travelling through Europe by foot to
encourage a conversation about the EU. In 2019, motivated by the
indifference towards Europe and the lack of interest in the
upcoming European election, Valerie set out on a journey to
promote voting, walking more than 750km from Lyon to Brussels. In
2021 she took up the challenge once again, crossing 12 Central and
Eastern European countries and walking more than 1400km.
