The Inca Trail: Work on the light rail hadn't even begun when Lucy Barnard swapped the roundabouts and 20-minute travel times of Canberra, for the Incan trails and long, deserted walks of South America.
She went in search of adventure, but it was more than just a long-term holiday that took Barnard halfway across the world.
The adventurer has spent the past two-and-a-half years with one goal - to be the first woman to walk the length of the world - from the southern most tip of South America in Argentina to the tip of North America in Barrow, Alaska.
Lucy Barnard left Canberra in search of one thing - to be the first woman to walk the length of the world.
