The Art of Nature - Germany | ALONE in the BAVARIAN ALPS - How is it to be an introvert - A lonely mountain trip in Germany @theartofnaturegermany | Uploaded October 2020 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
I went alone into the snowy Bavarian Alps! It’s not common for a German to do mountain trips alone, as most people are afraid that something happens and no one is around to help you... But I always feel safe in nature. I’m also used to hike alone in the mountains, because I did it a lot during my time in Norway and as a nature loving introvert there is nothing more fulfilling and energizing!

What does being alone mean to you? Being an introvert doesn’t mean that I don’t like or need the company of other people. It’s just that being alone gives me energy and time to reflect, structure my thoughts and make plans to built my dream future. I really need much time on my own, otherwise I feel more and more stressed until I’m completely drained.
When I was younger there was a phase in which I was convinced to be an extrovert as I always needed to be with people. But that was just not true. The point is that I was afraid of my thoughts, so I didn’t want to give myself time to think. But I felt miserable the whole time, because I avoided the me time, I need so much for being happy and successful – It was a vicious circle.
The key is to always strive for balance and that balance is totally different for every individual. So don’t copy other people, listen to your own intuition – you always know what you need most. Prioritize your needs over anyone and anything else. It’s your time on earth, so you decide what to do with it. The time you lose, you will never get back.
I met not a single soul in this wild Bavarian mountain landscape. It was perfect. Nature also had some gifts for me. Besides joy and inspiration also something tangible. I found lots of bay bolete and porcini mushrooms. When I came back from my adventure it was nearly dark.
The next day I prepared these fresh forest mushrooms for lunch. Cleaning them is always a messy job and you have way more waste than parts you can use, but I see it as a form of meditation. It takes a long time and I enjoy working with my hands. In the end you produced food nobody else ever was involved in – just you and nature.
Have a beautiful week friends, I’m looking forward to chat with you in the comments.
