Creator Barry Hoffner on overcoming grief by means of travelling to each nation on Earth




A man who suffered extreme grief after the sudden death of his wife has spoken to FRANCE 24 about his project to travel to every single country in the world, and how it brought him out of his grief. Barry Hoffner first took one trip and found that his reconnection with people was helping him to heal. He discovered a way of shifting from grief to the idea that there was something left in life. His book is entitled “Belonging to the World: A Journey from Grief to Connection in Every Country on Earth”. He spoke to us in Perspective.
