Description

Gideon Lewis-Kraus embarked on a journey to find meaning and connection in his life. After leaving behind the pain of his past, he set out to explore the world and discover new ways of living. He undertook three ancient pilgrimages: walking the Camino de Santiago with a friend, circling 88 Buddhist temples on the Japanese island of Shikoku alone, and finally, traveling with his father and brother to visit the tomb of a famous Hassidic mystic in Ukraine. These journeys took him hundreds of miles from Berlin, where he had initially sought freedom and escape. Through these experiences, Lewis-Kraus grappled with questions of faith, identity, and belonging. His story is one of self-discovery and exploration, as he searches for a sense of direction in his life.
