Tom Turcich
Tom Turcich is the tenth person to walk around the world—and the first to do it with a dog. After the sudden death of a close friend, Tom set off on a seven-year journey across six continents, covering nearly 30,000 kilometers on foot with his rescue companion, Savannah. From deserts to war zones, mountains to megacities, Tom’s walk became a global meditation on fear, resilience, mortality, and the power of connection. Now a public speaker and author of The World Walk, Tom shares the deep lessons he learned from years of solitude, slow travel, and human kindness.
