HIKING

HIKING

I only started hiking a few years ago but it has quickly become one of my favorite activities to do. There is no better way to clear your mind after a long week of work than by walking outside in nature. 

Nothing beats the sensation you get after going up a mountain and reaching its top! It is a fantastic way of exercising while you breathe fresh air, the wind blows in your face and on top of that you usually get rewarded with amazing views. Being up there feels like you are on top of the world!

In this section, you will find all of my hiking guides as well as all the different tips I am learning as my experience grows.
