My collection of drawings about love, thoughts, notes and images where I try to sketch up and figure out what love is all about. It’s a sketch of a map.
Love, affection and hiking is kind of special, some hike as an escape from problematic relationships, some hike with their loved ones, others because of loss, or in hope of finding. Love can be part of hiking in so many ways, not only on the trails, but in our language love, walking together, life trails, to take a hike or and being on the same path are just a few examples of how hiking and love are knitted closely together.
