Rolling through El Crisol between mountains.

Loving greetings to all my Hive friends, it gives me great pleasure to be back in this beautiful community sharing another magical time outdoors. The last few days have been pretty rough at home and at work. We have had many power outages and the drought has caused us to have little water at home, which is difficult because we live in a very hot area. Without power and water the days are very long and without a peso in our pockets even longer.

On days like these I just want to run outside and that is usually the best idea because enjoying nature and spending some time out in the open is something we can do even without money or many resources at hand. My partner @aly.squid and I have always done it, escape to the countryside, where it's just the two of us and enjoy nature and a fresh bottle of water. But we usually did this by walking, now we do it by motorcycle.

We ate before leaving, put four liters of water in our backpack and set off. In the tank of the motorcycle we had 3 liters of gasoline, enough for the distance we planned to travel. We took the road to go to El Crisol, we thought we would stop to visit our friend Marbella, but as it was unexpected we did not find her at home. Her little daughters were there, we greeted them and spoiled them for a while and then we went on our way.

We rode the bike for about 30 kilometers more, we wanted to continue but the sun was inclement so we decided to turn back. But it was super comforting to ride for a while, enjoy the fresh air and feel the brightness of the landscape penetrating the eyes. We are fortunate to live on the border of two beautiful regions of my country: the plains and the Andes. This makes the landscape unique, the vast green valleys, decorated with beautiful blue mountains. It is something I would never get tired of seeing.

In fact I lived several years in another region while I was doing my university studies and what I missed most from my region and my city were the mountains. The Andean landscape is something to keep in my memory and in my heart.

Soon we will be making other trips and I hope to share them with you so that you can know more of the natural beauty of where I live. A beauty that is very accessible, because it is not part of a park or a special reserve, just go out to the street or roll a little down the road and there are all the colors and shapes dancing for the spectators.

I hope you enjoyed taking this tour with me, I had a great time. All worries or stress disappear when we let ourselves be embraced by nature. I say goodbye for now and leave you with a big hug.
