To be honest I have never been a major fan of doing anything involving much activity at all. The thing is I thought that a lot of work is done in my job, why should I do it when I am away taking vacation.

However this all changed when I was invited to go on what I thought to be one of those waste of time active holidays however when I received the invite I had a bit of holiday left over and thought screw it I will just go. After booking it I was then told the news that it wasn’t just an active holiday but one of those walking holidays.

I really was not happy about getting off the plane and setting off on a weeks walk. From the first day my opinion on these holidays changed for the better. It was very nice to get away from the city and see the lovely wilderness. It was so good to just sit back and watch the wildlife as it carries on.

The cases and things that we had with us were not needed for the walk so they were taken to our stops for us just ahead of our route so when we arrived we could use the things in our cases. We only really needed the the things for the day which was really brilliant. The thing I was most worried about was my Diabetic items simply because they need to stay cool, but it all turned out fine.

We actually went on a Costa Rica Holidays but there are so many other active and walking holidays out there to choose from, it changed the way I thought about the world and it may be worth going on one yourself.
