Hoe langer je wacht, hoe hoger de drempel wordt. Het geldt voor veel dingen; oma bellen, het beloofde etentje organiseren, bloggen..

Er gebeurde veel sinds het vorige blogje. Ik ging op vakantie naar Mexico, rondde mijn PhD zo goed als af, ging een weekje surfen en had een after-PhD dip. Ik begin langzaam bij te komen van de laatste 5 maanden voor de deadline. Het was hard werken, veel stress, weinig sociaal en veel ongezond leven. Nu probeer ik weer een ritme op te pakken en begint de banenjacht op gang te komen. De stress is minder, maar niet weg, want de toekomst ligt open. Dat is leuk en spannend, maar ook een klein beetje eng..

Touristic Conwy on a sunny Saturday was a bit of a shock after 12 days of hiking, camping and sheep. But after stuffing myself with fresh food and ice cream, I decided to ignore that I clearly stood out from the crowd (being a filthy backpacker and such) and join in the fun. So I spent the afternoon walking on top of the city walls and visiting the castle, which of course was preparing for a rendition of a Shakespeare play, because: British. • #welshadventure #castle

The last stretch. I may have underestimated this trail, but I loved it no less. A little sad that it’s ending, but happy and a little proud that I did it. • Day 10: Llanfairfechan - Conwy • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
Friendly rolling hills with a sea view and some moody weather. • Day 9: Bethesda - Llanfairfechan • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
Sunk a boot all the way into the mud, followed by some big steps and small jumps to navigate a rocky part and a walk through a green valley. I loved all of it. The only blemish was the little ache in my shin grew and turned out to be more persistent that I’d hoped. • Day 8: Llyn Ogwen (south) - Bethesda • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
By this point I’d gotten so spoiled that I complained the path was a bit boring, because it was a wide gravel path leading straight on.. But this was the view. • Day 7: Dolwyddelan - Llyn Ogwen • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
I picked up the trail where I left it, meaning that after I dragged myself up the steepest field I’d ever seen, I was stood on a familiar road and watched the bus I’d been on the two days before pass me by.. Unsurprisingly though, the surroundings were worth the effort. Happy to be back to ‘cross the field, then cross the stile to the next field’. • Day 6: Beddgelert - Dolwyddelan • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
Enjoyed the luxury of a bed, left all my heavy stuff behind for the day and hiked to the top of the Yr Wyddfa/Snowdon. Swipe to see the view disappear about 30 minutes before reaching the summit. • Day trip: ⬆️ Pyg ⬇️ Miners - 🚌 Beddgelert • #yrwyddfa #eryri #snowdon #snowdonia #welshadventures #hikinguk
Button
More green valleys and the joy of being on a bus before the rain hit. The initial plan for this holiday was to hike the standard route with full pack and do day hikes to the peaks and there was no reason not to go back to that.. • Day 5: Penrhyndeudraeth - Beddgelert - 🚌 Pen-y-Pass • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
The guide suggesting a 30km day seemed okay when when I was at home on my couch, but a bit excessive when I woke up on day 4.. Shifting the plan from long days/rest days to shorter days/all days. • Day 4: Trawsfynydd - Penrhyndeudraeth • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
While I decided to switch from mountain route to standard route, the weather switched from relentless sun to overcast and high humidity. A green valley and Roman road brought me to the next stop. • Day 3: Dolgellau - Trawsfynydd • #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #snowdonia #hikinguk
Button
The absolutely stunning views at the top of Cadair Idris are one of the highlights of my trip. Feeling good and strong and loving the hike at this point. The full day kicked my ass though and after running out of water (again), having trouble finding the path and thinking I was almost there while I really wasn’t, I deserved some rest and used the next day to reassess. • Day 2: Abergynolwyn - Dolgellau • #snowdoniaway #eryri #snowdonia #welshadventure #hikinguk
Button
Started the hike in a heatwave, uphill, being attacked by horse flies and slipping in the mud as soon as it turned downhill. Save to say I was wondering why I was doing this and if I should bail within half an hour. And then the views got pretty and all was good. • Day 1: Machynlleth - Abergynolwyn • #snowdoniaway #eryri #snowdonia #welshadventure #hikinguk #wanderlust

When normal life feels normal again, it’s time to look back on a lovely trip. Starting with an ode to the friends that kept me company during my hike 🤍🤎 • #bêêêh #snowdoniaway #eryri #welshadventure #hikinguk #wanderlust

Guttation; the exudation of drops of xylem sap on the tips or edges of leaves of some vascular plants, such as grasses, and a number of fungi. • #mushroomhunting #hikingnl #wanderlust

The atrocious premise is the same. The stories are different. The Dutch markings blatant and numerous. • We cannot change history, but we must acknowledge and learn from it. Apologies are a nice gesture, but words are never enough.

Castles generally make me think of queens and knights, but some of the pretty buildings called “castle” have an purely horrid past. Ghana and The Netherlands will always be linked by the abomination of the slave trade. Reading about it left me speechless before. Listening to the stories and standing at a place where people were purposefully stripped of their last bit of humanity knocked the wind out of me.

Six months into a new job and they send me to Ghana! After a week at an industrial site in Tema, Cape Coast was a lovely change of scenery. • #workperks #ghana #wanderlust

The final stretch of the hike I really wanted to do. I’m happy I could complete it before getting sick. This coastline and Sagres (at the very end there) have captured my heart. • Day 5: Zambujeira do Mar - Odeceixe • #trilhodospescadores #fishermanstrail #alentejo #portugal #wanderlust

The longest day (22km) and not a cloud in sight. Luckily a nice beach and a lovely cold ocean were waiting for me at the end of the hike. • Day 4: Almograve - Zambujeira do Mar • #trilhodospescadores #fishermanstrail #rotavicentina #alentejo #portugal #wanderlust

High cliffs and empty beaches. Wind and sun on my face and loads of space for my thoughts. • Day 3: Vila Nova de Milfontes - Almograve • #trilhodospescadores #fishermenstrail #rotavicentina #alentejo #portugal #wanderlust

In 2016 I hiked one day of the trail, trudging through the loose sand carrying a pack that was way to heavy, but still loving it. I promised myself I would be back and do it right. Packed solely for hiking this time it was an easier walk and still as beautiful as years before. Happy I could keep my promise to myself. • Day 2: Porto Coco - Vila Nova de Milfontes • #trilhodospescadores #fishermanstrail #rotavicentina #alentejo #portugal #wanderlust

With the trip ending in isolation and diving straight back into work I haven’t taken much time to look back on my hike last September. Yesterday I finally uploaded the pictures taken with my camera to my laptop and two things stood out; 1) I basically had the same view for 4 days but it never became any less stunning, and 2) I miss daylight already. • Day 1: Sines to Porto Covo • #trilhodospescadores #fishermanstrail #rotavicentina #alentejo #portugal #wanderlust

“You’re supposed to learn from this experience, it’s a pilgrimage route.” *learns how to tape blisters* (I just learned that it’s in fact not a pilgrimage route, so I guess the lack life lessons learned can be forgiven ;)) • Day 3: Holthees - Ven-Zelderheide, 21km • #hikingnl #pieterpad #wanderlust
