From the 5th of August to the 2nd of September I hiked the Slovenian Mountain Trail. 620 km From Maribor to Ankaran! Which was – I would say – one of the best things I did in my life so far. Hiking every day, being exposed to incredible beauty and danger at the same time and the most important: being outside, walking all day and reducing everything you carry to the bare essentials. You will realise how much or rather how little it actually needs to live a full month out there (mostly) in the wild. How it makes you stronger, both physically and mentally. How you learn to believe in yourself and your abilities and how the lack of security which feels so thrilling at the start, gets comfortable in the end. This video only includes the highlights and not much about how it actually was sometimes. Because when the trail gets hard, the first thing you do is not getting your phone out to capture it, but try not to die (jk)
Enjoy! 😉
