Cave Man - a solo trip to a natural mountain cave






I decided to head to Priest's Hole, a natural cave in the Lake District to spend a few nights reflecting and wild camping in nature. The second night was spent by a lake in a glacier carved valley, sleeping under the stars. It was a thoroughly enjoyable trip full of "being" rather than "doing". I enjoyed cultivated my meditation practice, doing some tai chi and forcing myself to doing nothing. Every year I try to take a solo trip into the wilderness and it never fails to impress on me how important it is to make some time for yourself in a peaceful environment. Being so close to nature inspires thought and ideas which otherwise would remain unthought.

Do YOU enjoy packing? It's one of my favorite pass-times! If I'm going on holiday or just going camping it's just something that arouses a funny sort of nostalgia inside me and reminds me of home.
