If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I love hiking in nature. At the beginning of July I did a few really difficult hikes in the mountains. While they were hard, they were also stunningly beautiful. Today’s story recounts the poetic beauty I find when hiking on the trail.
This story is in the first person and present tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “sendero” (trail),“árboles” (trees), “flores” (flowers), “cascada” (waterfall) and “sigue” (continues/follows).
