Desert

Haber hecho este viaje al desierto fue sin duda una idea muy acertada. Hacer un viaje de este tipo siempre resulta ser algo muy especial. Ya que nos impulsa a salir de lo cotidiano y nos muestras las maravillas que se encuentran a kilómetros de donde uno vive.

Traveling to the desert was an excellent idea. To do a trip like that always seems to be special for me. It provides you the opportunity to see things you don't see often and also shows you how beautiful nature can be.
La persona más increíble de este mundo.

The most wonderful person!
Lista para empezar a caminar!
Llevamos dos botellas grandes de agua, frutas y emprendimos el camino. Nos tomó 2 horas y media desde el principio del recorrido hasta el final del mismo. Fue intenso, sobre todo estar al sol, sin embargo había muchos lugares con sombra donde sentarse y recargar energía.

Ready to start walking.
We took two big bottles of water and fruits and we started our way. It took us 2 hours and a half to finish, and we were very proud we did it.
It was a bit difficult, the sun was strong, and it was quite hot. However, there were plenty of places with shadow where you can sit and rest.
Las apariencias engañan! Les aseguro que aunque en la foto no lo parezca, estabamos muertos del cansancio.
Disfruté mucho de este paseo y lo que más me llamó la atención, además de lo maravillosamente bello que es el paisaje, es cómo nuestra mente juega un papel tan importante. Me explico: Estando en el medio de la nada, solos los tres, mucho calor, sin señal, poca agua pensaba "si nos pasa algo nadie se va a enterar" y a su vez pensaba "falta un montón, no se si voy a poder". Pero en el momento en el que vi los autos a lo lejos, les juro que podía haber corrido hasta el nuestro, mi cuerpo se llenó de fuerzas. Interesante, no?
Así que sí! Lo logramos!

Tengan un bello fin de semana!

I swear that even when you can't see it in the photo, we were so tired!
I enjoyed this trip and the thing which got my attention the most, other than the beautiful landscape, was how our mind can play with us. I'll explian myself: we were by ourselves in the middle of nowhere, it was really hot, we didn't have so much water, we didn't have cellular signal and in that moment I was thinking "if something happend no one will know and we can't ask for help". Also I was thinking that it was too hot, I'm so tired, and I don't know if I can do it". But in the moment I saw our car on the horizon, believe me I could run. I felt stronger. Interesting, right?
So, yes! We made it!

Have a wonderful weekend!
