My upcoming adventure!
I am hiking across Switzerland, my home country! I will be hiking the Via Alpina from Liechtenstein to Lake Geneva and back from there home on the Alpine Passes Route, both trails add up to 1000km! Stay tuned 🙂
A new week began and sadly it was the last one. The trail has come to an end and what an end it was. I couldn’t imagine a better end for my hiking summer! But let’s begin where I ended on the last post. Day 29 – Cabane Brunet to Grand St. Bernard I slept …
What I didn’t mention on Day 21 that it was Swiss national day! In the evening was also in the small village of Gruben some firework. We were only two people in the dorm room in the hotel and when the guy came in the evening, he had some wine left. He invited me for …
Hell yeah, already three weeks on trail! This trail feels like a rollercoaster, not only because of the many up and downs also with my emotions. But more of that you will read down below! Day 15 – Ulrichen to Ausserbinn I had a good night and slept like a baby. Uhm no, this was …
My name is Johanna Willi. I’m a 24 year old Swiss girl, born and raised in the Alps. In 2018 a big dream of mine came true. I thruhiked the Pacific Crest Trail. It’s a five month adventure from Mexico to Canada through the desert of southern California, the Sierra Nevada, northern California, the volcanic state of Oregon and last but not least through “little Switzerland of the US” the state of Washington. Since then, I’m better known by my trailname “Tinkle”. I never felt this appreciated and satisfied before in my entire life. After this trip, mountains became the place where I truly belong.
Living in the woods for five months, with only your essentials in your backpack, meeting these honest and open people made me the happiest human on Earth. I learned a lot about myself and that it’s totally fine to be how you are. Everyone is beautiful in their own way, you just have to see it. This time changed me in a lot of ways. It showed me what’s really important in life and what are first world problems.
