By Bex Band
Chapter 1 Arriving in Israel I'm nervous about the huge and daunting task
that lays ahead of me. I share how I came to hear about the Israel National
trail and how I convinced my husband to quit his job and our life in London
so we can take on this hike together.
Chapter 2 The story of how I lost my confidence and why being left with
such low self-esteem compelled me to take on a 1000km hike. I share how I
prepared for the hike and how the day before I have serious doubts if I can
complete it.
Chapter 3Our first days on the trail are impossibly tough. Just when I
think we've got enough to contend with Gil gets sick and we are ‘attacked'
by a low flying helicopter. Can I really do this?
Chapter 4My thoughts are consumed with one thing only, wanting to quit. As
I pass the first week on the trail and pass 100km though I start to
appreciate small amazing moments that the trail brings.
Chapter 5A question from another hiker, ‘why are you doing this?' makes me
reflect on my motivations. Am I just doing this to prove that I'm good
enough after years of feeling like I'm not? We make it to Zichron Ya'akov
our first huge milestone on the trail.
Chapter 6We see through the hike how Israel is a country of separation and
conflict. Still, we experience nothing but generosity from the Israeli
people we pass. The trail takes us along the coast, past Tel Aviv and on to
Jerusalem.
Chapter 7Reflecting back on the preparations for the trail, one of the
hardest parts was telling people and the criticisms that came from that. I
realise judgements have consumed my work and life choices. My blog starts
to do well and I am even recognised by a reader for the first time. Is this
the start of a new career for me?
Chapter 8We are suddenly in the desert, the most difficult and dangerous
part of the hike. Can we complete the hardest week on the trail and conquer
the infamous Mount Karbolet?
Chapter 9In the desert life becomes routine and simple and I can feel
myself changing. I have lots of thinking time and work though some of the
worries I have about life and not fitting in or knowing where home is. Life
in the desert is simple and makes more sense.
Chapter 10Life continues in the desert. Passing a group of people, always
men, the early stages of an idea start to form for Love Her Wild. I talk
about doing an outdoor course in preparation for the trek and the sexism I
experienced.
Chapter 11We spend 2 nights in Neot Smadar, one of the last remaining full
kibbutz in Israel. It's an interesting experience!
Chapter 12The end of the trail is so near. I talk about the concept that
‘the trail provides' a popular hikers phrase and also retell the horrible
moment I take a fall and cut my head.
Chapter 13We join a group of Israeli young men for our penultimate day on
the trail. I miss female company! I reflect on the gender imbalance in the
outdoors and the sexism I've experienced. I tell Gil about an idea I have
to organise a women's only adventure called the Everest Adventure and to
launch a group so I can encourage more women to get outdoors.
Chapter 14Our last emotional day hiking the length of Israel.
Chapter 15The time that follows the trek. I feel like I have so many
opportunities ahead of me and more confidence than I ever had before. I
launch the Everest Adventure, pick a final team and start to see the early
success of Love Her Wild as the community grows larger than I ever
imagined.
Chapter 16Doing the Everest Adventure challenge with the team that I chose.
Nothing goes to plan and we fail the expedition, however in doing so we
discover greater things and the ethos of Love Her Wild is set.
Chapter 17Two years on and I am back in the desert of Israel but this time
leading a team of women on an expedition. I reflect on how Love Her Wild
has grown into a community of over 10k, with so many exciting
opportunities, awards, talks, etc coming my way. I'm happy, content and
living life on my terms and all thanks to going on an adventure!
