Amie Adamson Obituary, Death – She writes about the goodness of people she met along the way and the serenity that’s achievable one step at a time and in a relative state of privation, such as walking from the Delaware coast to central Kansas with all of one’s possessions in a backpack. She combines humour and inner reflection about things for which we all search, including contentment, joy, and peace. She writes about the goodness of people she met along the way.

Walking Out is a reflection on the reasons why moving our bodies and taking on physical difficulties gives us such a positive mental and physical experience. Her travels give new life to the idea that most people are trustworthy and that the United States is a secure place to live. Walking Out is for the hiker, the endurance athlete, the instructor who needs a catharsis or a deep belly laugh, and anybody else who has ever desired to leave real life behind for a moment and go out on an adventure.

This woman, who was also an English teacher, became disillusioned with the educational system in the United States. She gave up her teaching job and began backpacking across the United States. She had a book written about her experiences published, and then a Grizzly bear attacked and killed her. That is completely arbitrary and makes no sense.

Amie Adamson, an English teacher for two decades, quit her work in February of 2015, moved her entire residence into storage, and drove to the east coast to begin a backpacking trip across the United States that would cover a distance of 2200 miles. She was worn out and frustrated by the public school system, which is a system in which a growing number of teachers are deeply dissatisfied. In order to restore herself, she immersed herself in the restorative activity of hiking all day, gradually making her way west and writing her daily views on seeing America at walking speed.

Her book, Walking Out, is a collection of her musings on this journey, including how far she travelled each day, what she was thinking about, the events that transpired, and what it was like to walk alone across the United States halfway. Long-form articles that she wrote about her experiences as an English teacher in contemporary public schools are scattered throughout her travel notebook. Her scepticism about the public school system and her opinions provide some illumination regarding the reasons why so many educators leave their jobs or aspire to do so.
