Thinking about the Cotswolds Way daily. 💕
Thinking about the roller coaster of emotions I went through during that walk…. From so much joy and feeling like frolicking through the fields… to sitting in the middle of a field, a park bench, a fence… and crying my eyes out. Maybe one day ill share some of the dramatic texts I sent my sister during the walk 😅
The first big solo thing I’ve ever done. I am awful at directions (thank you AllTrails for saving me so many times!) and not great at doing things alone in general… but I feel like I came out of the experience with some more confidence and the want to do something similar again!
I miss the country side, and having walking being the only thing on my schedule for the day.
If you’re thinking of doing a solo trip, do it! It’ll be hard and you’ll learn from your mistakes like I did (like I paid £100 for a 15 min cab ride when it should have been around £30. Or when I walked an extra hour to the further grocery store because I read the map wrong 🤦♀️). But the solo time is so good! The time to think and reflect and just be on your own schedule is so freeing 💗
Can’t wait for my next adventure ✈️
