LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT

'LAZAROW WORLD HIKE-ABOUT: WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HIKE-ABOUT?'

Hike-about is an adventure that commenced June 2010. After storing our household movables, ridding ourselves of a house but retaining our 'home' together, we set off with the purpose of hiking in different parts of the world, not forgetting the home country, the USA.

Our primary focus is hiking to mountain peaks but any challenging hike will do just fine. Extended stays enable us to enjoy and experience living in various places amongst differing cultures. Hike-about has evolved into a way of life. It's also a process of discovery, both the world and ourselves.

We work and live 'on the road' but return to the city in which our grandchildren reside, every three, or slightly less, months. This provides us the wonderful opportunity to be with them as well as a child or two, even three and of course, friends.

By the end of 2024, the blog contained over 1,636 hikes (far less than actually undertaken), each a set of pictures with stories and anecdotes from the trails. An index to the right allows the viewer to identify earlier experiences.

Finally, we are often asked about the journey's end.
O
ur reply, as accurate as we can state, is: "When we are either forced to cease through health issues or the enjoyment level no longer reaches our aspirations, we will hang up the boots."

"A Life Experience As No Other: Dare to Seize the Day Together", published by Fulton Books, depicts our life on the road and mountains until the beginning of 2017. It has developed 'exponentially' since then.

69.20 Bulgaria: Part 2 of Yogadina highlights, a random selection from other places, including a special guest to provide melody to accompany the surround.

  Following the comment in the previous blog (video), we did receive 2 notes from very kind viewers (thanks, Gavin and Ellie, a son and granddaughter respectively. What wonderful people they are indeed!) Therefore, we have published a concluding collage from the mountains surrounding Yogadina, as promised.

  In addition, we inserted a few photographs from other hikes in Bulgaria to avoid boredom. 

 Finally, we welcome our friend, Brian Murray, who fills in the quiet parts with a meaningful song composed and obviously sung by him. How appropriate it is to have a rather sad and touching rendition accompany a time of year with flora of brilliant colors before the fall and demise of many of them.
