It’s rare to have a friend who stands by you as steadfastly as family, someone you’ve known for as long as your own. Today’s hike marked a meaningful moment—over 30 years of shared experiences and memories, all woven into the rhythm of a single journey. And it wasn’t just the two of us; we were joined by a determined dog who, despite his initial hesitations, decided to leave the safety of his territory and embark on a 17km adventure with us.

It’s not uncommon to encounter abandoned or free-roaming dogs in these parts, some timid and others eager for companionship. This dog seemed to have a bit of both—cautious yet curious. As we walked through snow, mud, and ice for nearly five hours, we couldn’t help but marvel at his resilience. Despite not looking like a dog built for this kind of journey, he kept pace with us, and we often found ourselves wondering where he found his strength.

Along the way, we crossed paths with a group of hunters we’d met just ten days ago, though this time, unlike their previous hunt for wild boar, they were on the lookout for foxes. The familiarity of the moment prompted reflection, and as we hiked, we found ourselves contemplating the past while analyzing the present.

We both agreed that something we often hear is, in fact, true: the connection between physical and mental health is undeniable. When you’re out in nature, on the move, and pushing your body, there’s little room to dwell on the worries and stresses that tend to linger when you’re sitting idle at home. The sharp, brisk air at -5°C rewarded each step with a refreshing clarity that filled our lungs and rejuvenated our spirits.

At the end of the day, it wasn’t just the physical satisfaction of completing the hike that mattered—it was the joy of sharing this experience with someone who’s been part of your life for so long. To walk together in the fresh, crisp air, surrounded by snow-covered hills and the peace of nature, was the perfect reminder of what truly brings fulfillment.
