While those seeking a life changing epiphany take pilgrimages to Lourdes, Santiago de Compostela, Mecca, and beyond, Hadrian Rabouin, an 18 year old Breton (guy from Bretagne), has something else in mind and decided that what he needed, was to walk a 1200 kilometer (745 miles) circuit in France with his cow named Camomile, a one and half year old Charolais heifer.

With organic farmers for parents, Hadrien grew up deeply ingrained in toxic-free nature, and amidst the mindset of respecting his environment.

I admire the young man. I have sent a link to Johnathan Porrit - environmentalist and Chair of the Sustainable Development Commission. I'm sure he'll he heartened to know that there are young people concerned about the juggernaut meat industry and factory farming.
