A dream

a road

a path

And you are here too.

                        Going the same way?

At the same time?

Yes, at the same time

And in the very same dream.                    

It is night                                     

I can’t quite see you.      

But… I’m not sure, 

do I know you?

Not yet

Remember

This 

is

     a

.: .^`* . .dream. . *`^. :.

And on we go        

None of it really makes sense

yes,  but 

come on,

let’s keep on going

Some say they’ve already finished

Some say they’re just starting now…

Are you tired?

No

Shall we carry on?

Walking?

Girls       

it’s

there’s a way 

through here!

And look!

I think I can see her!

And over there, 

I can follow your footsteps!

It must be …

.: .^`* . .It must be a dream. . *`^. :.

But still, as we keep walking,

I look at you all…

And I think…

So many?

So many of us here, sharing the same dream?

Every Harvest moon since 2021, women* in different cities walk together, on the same night and in the same direction, just following the path of the full moon. Last year, we walked from 26 cities across 11 countries, and thanks to the different time zones, during 24 hours, we almost made our way around the world! It is an exciting story that I’d like to share with you on 30 July: the story of Women Walking, the City, at Night 

and everything we experienced along the way.
