Hello hello!
Welcome everyone! I’m very excited to start my own blog. I have been wanting to do this for quite some time now (like more than three years), and I finally feel like I have time to pour into this.
My name is Miki. I am an architecture-related photographer / writer, in my 40s and based in New York City area. I am passionate about hiking, car camping, backpacking, road tripping …etc. And I do most of my activities solo. When you do things solo, it’s an entirely different experience.
What made me start this blog is that I was looking for a way to document my solo outdoor activities since it’s becoming a real thing for me. My first hike in the Adirondack was in May 2022, so it has been a year and half. I always look for more information about what people think about gears, how they do it…etc. So I thought I could be one of them sharing experiences. Another reason is that I realized, in our culture, doing activities solo is not really encouraged, especially for women, probably for safety reasons and I do understand that. But, doing things solo could take you to a whole new world. Silence and solitude bring great benefits into life whether you are single or not. So I thought that it would be great to have a place where we can talk about the beauty of doing things solo, and inspire and empower people like myself.
I will be sharing solo outdoor activities mentioned above, and also cars, photography, ..etc.
