Recursive Trails attempts, perhaps ambitiously, to document or capture the wisdom of the trail.

The idea is that much like going on a meditation retreat, immersing ourselves in nature puts us in touch with the sensory world and our moment to moment experience of it. This provides us with a unique opportunity to step outside the normal flow of our lives and reflect on who we are outside of the human bubble (e.g., the story that we may have told ourselves) in which we live.

So, Recursive Trails is all about self-understanding through adventure.

On a personal note, Recursive Trails has come about in response to my difficulties with mental health and my love of nature (and my passion for coding, of course!). Viewing hiking and nature as a bit of antitode to the stresses of the modern world.

My time on earth has been a rather restless one, with my exploring a number of career paths, and it just so happens I am now a software developer. Thus, I give you this blog.
