I've found somewhere peaceful

I have always found it very difficult being around lots of people.  When I walk into town, the people, noise, traffic and lights really upset me.  I sometimes prefer to stay at home.

It's all about finding something that works.  I have always loved being by and on the water.  I have recently purchased a Kayak, and I have been out a few times on it.  It is so lovely to be out on my own exploring the river near my house.  I am at one with wildlife and it's so relaxing.  It definitely helps with my stress levels.  I would recommend it to anyone.

  • This looks like fun :-) I used to go rowing once a week with one of my friends earlier this summer and really enjoyed the different view of the countryside, but it was making my shoulders hurt for a week afterwards so I stopped! I did do canoeing several times when I was younger and always enjoyed it and have considered that I may have to invest in a canoe at some point in the future. I would still get a fabulous and peaceful tour of the countryside but with less stress put on my shoulders! How often are you planning to go Kayaking? Do you have to travel far to get to the river?

  • I hope to Kayak once or twice a week.  I have joined the local sailing club so I can store my Kayak, although they have social events and I want to avoid those.  I am lucky enough to live close to several rivers, so I can walk to the club and kayak.
