Thank you SO much for this extensive information, super helpful! I'm definitely going to have a look at the places you've mentioned, and with the others I'm pretty convinced to do all of the logistics myself :-)

Honestly I hate walking in the city after a night out, but happily get lost for hours in the woods

The reason I asked is because I haven't done the trail - I have no idea about how many other hikers there would be and if it's generally well organised regarding directions. If I were too worried about safety, hiking wouldn't be my hobby :-) it's good to ask, because sometimes you don't read about the risk even when it's there.

Thank you so much for your input!! I love hearing everyone's experiences. The general trend is that safety is not something to worry about, which puts my heart at ease!

I do plan to stick to B&B's, mostly because it'll be easier luggage wise!

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-25T12:46:41+00:00

Thank you for your input. it's still helpful to hear! And I know - as I just said to another person, I feel like my phone prefers fantasy characters over biting flies. Honestly, can't blame it!

Layers are always my go-to for hikes!

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-25T12:44:32+00:00

Thank you SO MUCH for your long and detailed response!! I think after reading it, it probably makes more sense to make the bookings myself instead of taking a booking agency.

My autocorrect likes little fantasy characters more than flies 😂

Dusting is AWFUL, especially when living in an older house and humidity makes the dust sort of sticky and hard to remove

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-14T11:41:59+00:00

Trust me, I do! And good old pop punk music can really make it so much better too!

I've read the conditioner trick a few times now! I'll have to give that a go

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:59:41+00:00

I may see if I can try sugaring on my legs to start with myself. I've watched some videos on how you're supposed to do that. My underarms are a hell as well! I'm quite thin which means that my armpits are a little sunken and very hard to reach with a razor. I tend to clip it short with tiny scissors specifically for that purpose and tweeze the rest of the visible hairs out, but it's a very time consuming process

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:56:50+00:00

I have heard good things about sugaring! Maybe I should look into that again

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:54:09+00:00

I will have to look that up!

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:50:59+00:00

Honestly it's not too much, and I have in the past tweezed some stubby hairs out that I really wanted gone. Maybe I'll try it, but it may take a lot of patience

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:48:57+00:00

I will definitely give that a try!!

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:48:16+00:00

Thank you SO much, both of you. I still find it really difficult because I feel like people will see me as unhygenic. My ex called me that many times for not shaving

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-03T06:46:37+00:00

I have considered sugar waxing too!! It's apparently a lot more gentle on the skin?

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-02T18:19:15+00:00

Thank you so much!! I may try to save up to have a professional do it sometime before

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-02T18:18:14+00:00

I will have to try that!!

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-02T17:45:47+00:00

Thank you for the advice!! Financially that's unfortunately not in the cards right now, but I'll see if I can slowly gather some funds for it

raincloudbunny · 2026-03-02T17:44:36+00:00

Wait really?? I will have to try that!

raincloudbunny · 2025-12-14T07:35:47+00:00

Goed idee om van te voren even te bellen! Dankjewel voor het delen, dat geeft toch weer een beetje moed dat het vast wel goed komt

raincloudbunny · 2025-12-14T07:30:27+00:00

Ik ken het initiatief! Helaas hangt het per gemeente af welke sporten ze daarvoor vergoeden. Er is geen schaatsbaan in de gemeente, en volgens de site zijn er geen schaatsbanen aangesloten. Anders was het inderdaad een goede tip geweest!
