That's why I like hiking and camping. I live in a centrally heated house, double glazing, favourite chair, trips to Tesco, dishwasher, TV, PC, the internet and so on. When at home I always live comfortably. Just a thought went through my head, do you know what, I haven't washed up for years! Amazing!
When I hike I'm in another world, rain, cold, heat, hunger, anxiety, mood changes, darkness, etc all things we are insulated from in our houses. The point I try to get to quickly is that moment when my daily routine stops, I don't get out of my tent, put the kettle on a 7 am and have a cup of tea with a bowl of muesli. In fact, when I get out of my tent I can do what I like and when I like.
At home I make my wife a cup of tea at 8.15, that's our agreement, that's our routine. When I'm away I please myself!
