Viajarapie is about long distance hiking. The name is in Spanish and it’d roughly translate into Travelling On Foot. The focus is on wilderness, self supported travel and all related aspects: gear, skills, ethics, DIY and the simple joy of being out in nature, feeling back home.
It’s on foot that the world gets big again.
