Warning: you will be jealous

Climbing, sailing, and eating Greek food

Looking over the valley on Kalimnos at sunset- breathtaking

The Sailing

Sailing is probably one of the most exhilarating things in the world for me. The wind whipping my hair around and the sun shining down on me is just magical.

I was given the task of driving the boat almost all day yesterday which is exhausting also. And especially in the crazy winds we were experiencing. for me however its a joy to know that I am competent and strong enough. That I’m smart and willing to do a lot of crazy things that others are not. Did I mention that I’m alone, on this sail boat except for the 7 other men that are here with me. So alone only in the fact that only my body produces a lot of estrogen.

Anyways that’s besides the point. We sailed past a TON of really neat islands. Crazy houses tucked on the sides of them that I didn’t see really how they could possibly have a road to them. We sang some, my favorite song to sail to is “I Feel Good” it’s so much fun to sing to.

The climbing

So after we sail and anchor and have lunch and nap while we waited for the sun to be a little less hot, we headed off, onto land and up the mountain.

Hiking is always fun for me, but I really hate going up up up. Like really. Anyways we got to the top and the views were breathtaking, the rock even cooler. We all picked a route and jumped on. It has been a while actually since I’ve climbed so I feel very out of practice and definitely out of shape.

And yeah thats basically it. Ill be doing this for the next week and I love looking around and being overwhelmed with gratitude for my life.
