Last week I was at a work retreat in San Diego, California. We were given four options as to which non-work activity we would like to join. There was a “Tacos and Tequila” walk, a katamaran trip, an ocean kayaking trip, and a slot canyon hike. I chose the slot canyon hike because first of all it would be fewer people and I knew a week of socializing would be quite exhausting for my poor nervous system, and secondly, I looked up the wrong fucking hike and thought I was getting into a chill, easy-going, nature hike.

Long story short. I was very wrong. I had to sign a waver. Our guide gave us gear. It was definitely on the very challenging side. Had I known, I would not have done it, but I am so glad I did. Feeling quite chuffed.

Our guide took some pictures for us (as we were a bit focused on not falling 70 feet into the canyon slots).
