Summary Binning her shoes massively reduced the anxiety she’d suffered with in the past.
(Web Desk) – An 20-year-old woman has not worn shoes in three years even marrying without any on, is now set to hike more than 500 miles barefoot.
According to foreign media reports, 20-year-old Kasandra Smith, from Macon, Georgia, says binning her shoes massively reduced the anxiety she’d suffered with in the past.
Kasandra – who combines landscaping with a variety of jobs, including reading tarot cards – first started going barefoot after finishing school.
Growing up, she had a slightly larger frame and, feeling self-conscious doing PE at school, almost exclusively wore flip flops so she could get out of participating.
She explained: ‘I especially loved walking in the snow. My feet were really able to breathe, and my whole body felt cooler and calmer.
Kassandra says her feet have toughened up in the three years that she’s been walking barefoot, but she admits that she has suffered a few accidents.
She once stepped on a pin that went right through her flesh, and on another occasion, she stepped on a glass shard. But that was in her early barefoot-walking days, and the 20-year-claims her feet are much tougher now.
