what we talk about when we talk about good ideas

A beautiful video of Klara doing a 25-day hike through Iceland by herself. She talks about it here through Q&A.

I realised how vulnerable I was. I also felt stupid, as it was me who got myself into that situation, because I thought I would be modest and intelligent enough to stop and turn around, when it would get too dangerous, but I then I didn’t. I learned a lot about myself that day.

I would love an extraordinary trip like this. I don’t know if I could last a whole 25 days by myself though - I’d hate to travel without sharing these experiences with someone else. While backpacking last summer, I met so many solo backpackers and couldn’t help wonder if they were lonely. I can see how some people love it, but I don’t think I’d enjoy it as much as if I were to share it with someone.

What about you?
