Hi, I am Giudi, a Swiss girl with a huge passion for long-distance hiking.
My story began in 2017, when I decided to take the leap and head out for my first adventure, a solo hike on the Camino de Santiago. One step after the other, I was captured by this special feeling of freedom, a feeling which is difficult to describe unless you experience it.
Hiking brought me happiness. I really enjoy exploring new places by foot, carrying all I need in my backpack, feeling the strength of my body, and loving my simple self. Well, this is when it started, my endless chase for this feeling… I simply can’t get enough of it.
TALES of a TRAIL is a blog that I created with the intent to inspire people to go outside, spend time in nature, and explore the beautiful hikes and trekkings around the world. With this website, I also want to help people overcoming the many doubts, often experienced when starting to plan a new hike, and the overwhelming fear of going into the unknown.
TALES of a TRAIL also serves as a personal diary for me, to collect my most beautiful memories on trail.
Hey I am Yannick, I am in love with the outdoors and addicted to good food and drinks.
Grewing up in the southern Swiss alps, mountainsports have always been a big part of my life.
So hiking, camping and the many other things you can do out in nature have shaped my education.
But it was not until recently that I discovered the beauty of waking up every day with only one task in mind, to pack my things and walk. Thanks to Giuditta I discovered to world of thru-hinking. I discovered how it feels to have only a few things in your backpack, the few things that allow you to eat, sleep, live and to fully immerse yourself in the surrounding nature.
But hiking a long-distance trail is not only that, you are able to discover new places, new people and new food.
Every trail is different, every trail allows you to live a different experience.
This new passion of hiking has been accompanied by my love for cooking.
For me the food you eat at the end of the day is not only calories but its a reward.
With this blog I want to challenge myself to create and to share delicious trekking recipes.
