Welcome back to the 10 Adventures podcast! Today, we had the pleasure of chatting with Patrick Davies, the author of "Where Skylarks Sing," a captivating book that chronicles his walk across England, from Land's End in Cornwall to John O'Groats in Northern Scotland. Patrick embarked on this incredible journey in 2021, seeking solace and reflection after a challenging period that included caring for his father, who battled Alzheimer's.

In our conversation, Patrick shares the impetus behind his decision to undertake this classic English walk, weaving in personal anecdotes about his career as a British diplomat and the emotional toll of witnessing his father's decline. What sets Patrick's journey apart is his unique route, starting from Lizard Point in the far southwest and ending at the most northern point on the mainland, adding extra challenges and breathtaking landscapes to his 1400-mile trek.
