A good friend, Tony Howard (who is also a friend of the Path and has been trailfinding for them in Jordan), forwarded me an Abraham Path newsletter back in July 2007, which he in turn had been forwarded. It was the first I’d heard of the project. I sent an email off to API and the next day heard back from Daniel Adamson, who at that time was Director of Path Development in Jordan; he knew of me from the Rough Guide to Jordan. Then I was invited by the Turkish Ministry of Tourism, through API, to walk the path in Turkey that November… and so it began.

Can I ask where you are based? What’s happening on the path where you are?

I’ve read a few of your blog postings on the Abraham Path and as I am a friend and follower of the Path I wondered how you first encountered it?

Thanks for laying it all out Matthew – fascinating. As someone who went to work on a kibbutz when I was 18, went back again, to what was a very big “Israel”, including Gaza, El Arish, A-Tur. . . and went back a third time before skidding to a halt and wondering what I was doing there, I’ve been waiting years to hear somebody start talking about a “one-state solution”. I’ve always thought somehow it might be easier to achieve than two. Is anyone with any clout talking about it? Call me naïve. Go on, you know you want to.
