Yes, although it is not that far, from the community where we started the walk it is about half an hour at a good pace. The hard part, apart from planting on a steep terrain, is also when it is time to harvest, they must carry all of this to the flat part and from there in a cart to the community. Some of those who have their plot in the flat parts use motorcycles.
Hahaha, then you're just another one that the bugs love...
Yes, I know. We tried to cultivate a piece of land in Crete that it was in the forrest and the only access was a path. A beautiful place but discouraging difficult. We gave up after a few years and the path was just 10 minutes. So I understand the efforts of your friends and totally admire and respect what they are doing!
Bugs. That's a love - hate relationship. They love me and I hate them :)
Yes, they are definitely tricky places, I understand why you have given up.
Ah, so you're one of those who carry a few repellents when you walk around outdoors, so you don't feel their love so much 😂
Haha yes, my repellent is my best friend :)
Yet I keep preferring being outdoors in nature rather in a "safer", bug free environment! I guess I am a little masochist :)
