A colleague introduced me to hiking about ten years
ago. Although I am not a keen enthusiast, I try hiking once a month, except during
the summer. Most of the time, I am a follower in a hiking group made up of
colleagues from work or their family members. Knowing my own limitations, I
never challenge myself to conquer famous peaks or dangerous spots in pursuit of
this hobby. Instead, the unique periods of solitude with nature during a
journey are the motivation that keeps me in this pastime.
