I live in a mountain town where hiking is HUGE. Not my favorite activity though, and I’ve really enjoyed saying no to hiking. I can see mountains and trees and cool shit from my front porch. I don’t really wanna drive an hour to hike up another mountain and look at other mountains.

If I got nothing going on and it's nice out in the summer or early/mid fall, there's a pretty good chance I'm going on a hike.
It feels good to get tf away from a lot of the noise and bs, and to instead touch grass, take in nature, and be present with your surroundings as well as yourself. I love solo hikes but I also enjoy going with a close friend or two for some company.
And ofc I enjoy the exercise and challenge/accomplishment! It's pretty sick when you're doing a loop trail and you look back mid-hike to be like "damn I did all that!" The endorphins are flowing, I feel good, and nothing hits like a nice meal and a beer after a hike.
I'm also biased having lived close to the White Mountains my whole life lol

But I’m also like a trained field geologist and environmental educator LOL
I hate hiking for intensity or for the view… I DO like hiking for nature immersion or the joy of walking

I grew up in the desert and was always so enchanted when we would drive a couple of hours to the mountain forests. I never wanted to leave! I moved to a little city that is surrounded by woods and has huge trees and beautiful greenery everywhere and lots of free natural parks with walking trails. There are woods behind my house where deer and other critters live. It makes me really happy 🫶 lots of waterfalls and a big lake nearby too.
I do miss the mountains a lot though 💔

Thought I was always gonna be a gal who looks just okay in hats. But then I realized I just needed a big ass hat for my big ass head. Much hotter on me than your run of the mill hat (on me at least).

It’s funny cause I’m too scared to actually play most of the games, I watch other people play them on Youtube. I’m just obsessed with the storytelling you can do with this medium. Especially sick if the game is made by just one obsessed person. My favorite of all time is Sally Face. But I’ve also watched a ton of Silent Hill and Fear and Hunger playthroughs.

The only thing that has helped me feel like a human being after touring. Especially cause I got hypothyroid and my shit is constantly out of whack regardless of the insanity that is “the road”. I like that it ties in emotional and physical pain so deeply, cause I got both of em (who doesn’t).
