staying fit on the road @Cabo Vidio, Asturias, Spain, November 7, 2018

The fact that I’m constantly on the road means that it’s tough to maintain some daily routines. And that applies to working out on a regular basis. In fact, I believe working out is essential for traveling for a long-term because it keeps you healthy and gives you energy for continued adventures. But not every small town has a gym, and gyms can be quite expensive anyways to use on a daily basis.

In fact, I had been using a ‘home gym’ even before traveling, by using resistance cables and some ingenuity for installing them for different angles. Nowadays the ‘home’ is replaced by my car.

Usually, I find a place of ‘low profile’ in order not to surprise the neighborhood too much. But in this afternoon at Cape Vidio, I could afford a workout session while being surrounded by the views of the sea and the wild sounds of the waves. What an experience! By the way, I tend to finish some minor tasks of the day (phone calls, writing, having lunch etc) at places whose memories I want to keep vivid for a long time. It gives me the illusion that I know the place better.

The last picture is from a night in Liberia, Costa Rica, already about 9 months ago. It was in the garage of a hostel where I stayed. Every other guest was sleeping and I could only hear crickets. The peaceful moment deserved a photo.
