The Benefits of Hiking While Traveling

I really enjoy walking through the woods and seeing how observant I can be so that I can find my way back without using any map. It's almost like a challenge to myself. Sometimes I'll even recognize the same trees to signal that I'm going the right way. Hiking while travelling is a great way to see a new country and to get off the beaten path. One of the best things for me, however, is how friendly people are on hiking trails. No matter where you are in the world, people are much friendlier when you bump into them on a hiking trail.
