Matfen to Newburn - 13.8 miles

Breakfast was a thing of beauty; my hosts took the full English thing to a whole new level, and everything was freshly baked/cooked and super organic. What a way to start a day. It was a pleasant and relaxing walk, most of the paths were next to fields and rivers and my lunch break was a thing of beauty: river, sunshine, shade, food and a book for a good hour. I could have done the walk in 6 hours but wanted to really enjoy the silence before the last stage of my walk: the outskirts of Newcastle. By accident, I was given a whole house overlooking the river instead of a room 😊 I SO wasn't complaining. Even though I have already walked 84 miles and I've still had about 11 miles to go, I decided to go for a nice beach walk tomorrow :). Once you start you'll find it hard to stop. I simply can't help myself - Resistance is futile :)

Traveling is my happy place—there's nothing quite like the thrill of being in the middle of nowhere with nothing but my backpack, the open trail, and my own thoughts. Give me 12 hours of hiking, a lot of water, a little food, and a whole lot of unknown, and I’m completely in my element. I’m proud to say I don’t exactly fit the mold—maybe I’m a little wild, definitely adventurous, possibly a bit of a lunatic, and 100% alive. I believe life is meant to be lived, not watched from the sidelines. So here I am, chasing joy, chasing trails, and occasionally chasing my own sanity.
Come along for the ride! Dive into my stories and see the world the way I do—one unforgettable adventure at a time.
