I love making music.
I love hiking.
But each of them can be a bit time-consuming.
So, being the practical person I am, I decided to kill two birds with one shot...and do them both at once.
There are plenty of great places for quick hikes in DC - "quick" as in, you can do them in a day or less. I put a guitar in my case, try to travel light, and head out the door.
Now, this works best if you're hiking alone. I've been on group hikes, which I love! That's my favorite way to hike. But I definitely don't want to take a guitar on a group hike.
And I'm planning to buy a travel-size guitar. I play classical guitars, and a smaller one is a better idea.
This is just one way to combine music with other things you love. What ideas do you have for that? Leave those in the comment section. I'd like to read those!

I whip out my iPhone and use Garage Band when I get an idea and I'm far away from my instruments and recording devices.
ReplyDeleteExcellent idea!
DeleteMultitasking is the key! I don't write music, but I've almost always got my phone or an iPad close by to take notes whenever inspiration hits. I love the idea of getting out in nature to kickstart your creativity!
ReplyDeleteNature and electronics are an unbeatable combination!
