Not sure what is the correct definiton of hiking but I'd say I went hiking yesterday. Mountains might've been replaced by fields and hiking boots by my Monki boots (that aren't water resistant in the slightest) but I did carry a rucksack. A rucksack full of goodies including a camera, plasters and snacks. I probably looked like I was on a mission of some sort in my massive water resistant army style jacket. Who cares. I didn't. Just like I ignored my socks that were wet to my ankles and my hair that resembled more of a wet mop than the hair of a human being.
I need to dash now, I have some catching up to do with my friends and hopefully I can wear my new shorts that I spent the whole day fixing. That's what happens with second hand purchases.
