Vielha Pyrenees

6 days in the Pyrenees with a hiking group from Murcia
Taking a week out from the road trip and headed back North to the legendry Pyrenees mountains.
Based in the charming town of Vielha in central Aran, Catalonia Spain.
Genuine people can be hard to find these days - "The hiking group don't want to take from you, they want to know you are OK while in their country. They want you to grow, and they hug you and each other with genuine affection."
I grew up like that, I have always felt free and alive when I am in nature - At peace with the world and with oneself. I came to myself and realised: This is actually life!
Possible one of the most beautiful hikes I have been on. Hiking from Poncebos to Bulnes and back.

With more time than money. A journey from High Wycombe to Murcia Spain via Gex France.
A delightful sequel to Spain in a campervan. Mini-Adventure series.
A week in the lakes, hitting the mountain bike trails and hiking Old Man Coniston. With wild camping spots.
A visit to Snowdonia, hiking the miners track and returning down the Pgy track. Then hitting the road South, looking for more adventure...
Charging the power station from the leisure battery in my campervan or from 110 W solar panel. To be a little self-sufficient when wild camping. Also, allows me to charge laptop and the phone for working remotely on longer trips away.
The world crisis we are all going though, will bring suffering and hard-times. This will bring a brilliant opportunity, from a good kick up the back-side to get people to work and build a better life. As we become in-tune of what's really important, we will not be able to rely on the health care system, people will have no choice but start to take care of themselves. Things will get better, but not the same as before, we will see less plastic rubbish being brought from China and more quality goods made locally.
First trip to Scotland, based at Loch Ken 1/2 hour drive from Castle Douglas.
Visiting 4 of the 7 Stanes; Kirroughtree, Dalbeatie, Glentress and Mabie, plus a days hiking up the Merrick trail.
