Temi used to spend a lot of his time looking at screens. Between working as a software engineer, catching up with loved ones in different countries and scrolling on TikTok, the need to get away from the hustle of his life only grew.

He has managed his urges to escape the stress of life through hiking. He has gotten many benefits from the activity. He loves the beautiful views of nature that he believes you can only truly appreciate in person. He says he can even feel the difference in air quality compared being in London that immediately lifts his spirits. Hiking and being alone with nature allows him to completely disconnect and gives him perspective on life.

Listen to hear how he finds his trails, how he managed his hikes and how he has managed to micro dose the masculine urge to disappear.
