Do you consider yourself an adventurous person?
Someone who will go on almost any trip or adventure without notice?
I’ve always considered myself an adventurous person. I love to explore and find hidden things that no one knows about.
Something I’ve realized though is that I am much less interested in exploring by myself. In theory, I love the idea of solo adventure. Going out and finding cool stuff on my own.
In reality, I think I do love it, at least for exploring. It’ s been great for exploring downtown Austin. But there are some places that are just not as fun by yourself.
Something I love to do is hiking and backpacking. One of the reasons I don’t do it too much is because I’ve realized I don’t enjoy it nearly as much by myself. Something can be the most boring trail ever but with the right friends, it can be enjoyable.
I still need to make a better habit of having adventure on the weekends. I so often end up filling it with nonsense. So much time is wasted, simply because you don’t plan. Even your fun can be good to schedule, depending on what it is.
For me, hiking and backpacking are better with friends. But it’s also something I love to do in general. I need to make myself do it. You never know the fun you could have if you open yourself up to adventuring at all times.
