foldable saw, I am reading this book. It is about a woman who is walking some trail, The Pacific Crest Trail.... I really have no idea, what that is all about, except for what she is telling about. Anyway, she does not have any practice in a long trail walking, does not have any condition or training before she even started this.. She takes all kind of stuff with her, in her backpack. One thing is a foldable saw. I find that soo funny, she does not need it, anyway but she wants to keep it. Her backpack is way too heavy, because she also does not have any practice with how to pack a backpack and what to bring, with her. She forgets to take with her, a walking stick. to help her in climbing those hills. For keeping her balance, too I am ofcourse, also collecting all kind of stuff to take with me, to France, Spain, Portugal. Tools too, so i have ordered a foldable saw!  It is so much fun, reading about her trail and trial... Because that is what it is. Her mother died of cancer, her marriage went down the drain, so she feels lost.... and is very destructive in her way of finding herself again. I am not destructive, i just want to go, where the sun shines, 330 days a year. Because of me having this S.A.D. Wich is mentally killing me, every year again, sooo tired, so down... sighs.... Ofcourse, there will be other obstacles on my way I am aware of that. I will face them, when i get there. she also does not have any practice in climbing hills, i find it really funny, how she struggles and always find her way and herself back. I dont go to the hills, mountains in France, i go by the coast.... I dont have a certain time, to be back. i can go and stay where ever i want..of where ever i feel like... finding work, finding places to stay and relax, There are a lot of opportunities, find work as a housesitter, small animal sitter, or farmhand, or construction work, joining such organisations and find places to stay. My only goal is to go south, as fast as possible, on a city bike.  With my foldable saw, knifes and machete too.

And foldable bucket, pan, firestarter, plate, water purifier, and other necessary stuff..... food for on the way, tent, sleeping bag, and so on and on.... It is a lot! The bare minimum. You dont "nééd" so very much, when living in a warm/hot climate

I think the foldable saw is a great idea! Knowing how to pack for such adventures is the key to success.

A towel is the most important item!

"foldable saw, knifes and machete" Do you have a smile from which the policemen is melting? You have to use it, please, start to prepare to unfold when it is needed, until then, exercise it in front of a mirror... This smile will be the most useful tool on the journey.

I used to have a folding saw...it was sold as a "camping saw". Its cutting blade was designed to cut through tree limbs. A very useful thing for when you're out camping or hiking.

good hiking and safe travels. I don't hike but long distance cycling was a way for me to find myself. There's a purity in motion, a joy of movement that beings clarity.

hungaroboy, I dont show those tools around, i have them safely tucked away in my bike bags. Only when i stay somewhere and i need wood, to make a fire, i will use them.

boh, Me, too loves to be on my bike, for now, just short distances, but that will change, once the weather is becoming better. I fully agree with you, on the motion, moving part...

One can learn from her mistakes

likeithot, Well, not everyone is able and or wiling to learn.... That will happen, on my way, i am sure, as it was the case with this woman. I learn soo much from her journey ,already.....
