Running Wild in My New Primitive Sandals - new beginnings part 7

Thorns, jagged rocks and gravel can wreck havoc on one's feet. For this reason I've been very careful how I walk over different terrains. However, sandals and other footwear provide a layer of protection between the earth and the soles of the feet. So, I decided to make a pair of survival sandals out of palm leaves. But how well will these simple sandals work? Watch and find out. This is the seventh installment of a new series exploring this topic of "New Beginnings".
