Here are a few things I have noticed since I have arrived home. Some habits are hard to break and others are hard to get back into!
- When I wake up my first thoughts are “Where am I?” and “What is today’s track going to be like”
- I scan for somewhere to hang my food bag when getting ready for bed
- Will the sandflies or mice get in if I leave the window open?
- Remembering to have a shower each day
- Thinking to look in the mirror
- Brushing my hair as I didn’t even carry a comb for the whole trail
- When out for a walk I scan for a tree to pee behind
- I keep my torch beside my bed
- When out for a walk I scan for orange triangles
- Why are there so many dishes?
- Deciding what to wear is a big deal even though I have very limited clothes with me
- Slippers are so nice. I think my slippers were the things I missed most on the trail
