Anja has been passionate about walking since her early twenties. In 2009, when stranded in Egypt after leaving her job as an E-Learning Consultant, she followed a call to live at the foot of Mount Sinai. Here she soon teamed up with the local Sheik to offer hiking trips into the surrounding mountains and desert.

A few years later, her meditation teacher introduced her to walking with heaven under her feet. She spent two full years exploring this practice, bringing heaven to earth while walking in various countries including New Zealand, the Camino de Santiago in Spain, Denmark and Scotland, always following her inner guidance regarding where to go next.
