Nate Damm went from Delaware to San Francisco in 2011. Did the trip take four hours No. It took longer. Eight hours No. Much longer. A few weeks No. It took even longer than that. The trip took him over seven months. Why did it take so long Damm walked across the United States. He walked more than 3,000 miles across 14 states.
Someone asked Damm, “Wouldn't it be faster if you just drove ” Well, arriving wasn't the point.

At first, Damm used GPS (全球定位系统) to find his way, but the directions it gave him were often wrong. He bought a paper road map and found it was much better. He avoided major highways (主路); the smaller roads were safer.
