[don't come after me about the title -it's written in Corsican, not in Italian :)]
Zdravo! 
I'm wondering if this post is going to be short or long... September is about to end and I feel like a lot of things have happened but, at the same time, it feels like nothing really changed. I was recently scrolling through my phone gallery to remind myself of what we did during this month and what content I can write about here. But even though we went to village concerts, had our own at home and the apples, it now seems harder to grasp one of these memories and share it. It just feels like they’re not as 'exciting' as before and it gives me a weird feeling... 
Autumn is almost here... A change is being initiated...

However, part of this month was dedicated to traveling and hiking and I can't exclude those two here!
​
​A friend and I went for one week to the Dolomites in the north of Italy and Soča River Valley. The trip to the Dolomites was stunning -when we entered Italy and drove to the northern part, the views were already breathtaking. It felt like we were entering the world of Avatar. I was really expecting floating islands at every turn; it was just unreal! ​⛰️​​✨
As good tourists, we obviously did the E Cinque Torri hike on the first day. It's kind of funny and depressing: we were hiking for hours and occasionally crossing paths with people but when we reached E Cinque Torri, it was FULL of tourists taking a sunbath on outdoor chairs. How is that even possible? The answer: they took the cable car and, in less than 1 hour, were already at the top :)
​Anyway, it didn't stop us, and we finished our first big hike there! ​🥳

For the next few days, we continued hiking around the Dolomites. Every view was breathtaking (et je pèse mes mots) and each day brought a unique experience -from doing a bit of scrambling and walking next to the edge of the mountain for hours to just enjoying an easier path during our rest days. One valley can really be different from the next -ranging from a 'classic' valley, with a river and forested sides, to one that looks like the valleys of Wales (with only short green/brown grass/moss) to rocky mountains. I think that even if you spend at least two weeks in the Dolomites each year for an indefinite amount of time, you're still going to find new challenging paths, new astonishing views and new enchanting and hidden treasures ​✴️
At the end of the trip, we stayed near the Soča River for a few days. We had planned to do long hikes around the area but Storm Boris had other ideas and we had to shorten our time there... It even snowed in the Dolomites for days and in Slovenia, it stayed until we left too! ❄️
I still managed to get a glimpse of this famous river -and its color is definitely out of this world. I really wish I could go back there before I leave -with better weather of course...

It's now time to close my September post... what a weird but full of adventures month ​👀 
​Se vidimo! ✨
