🥾 B1 Transcription — My Weekend Hike
Speaker: Alex.
Hi, I’m Alex. Last weekend I went on a hike not far from my city, and it was exactly what I needed. I spend most of my week indoors, so on Saturday morning I decided to get some fresh air and move my body a little. I didn’t plan anything complicated. The night before, I checked the weather, charged my phone, and packed a small backpack. I took a bottle of water, a sandwich, some nuts, and a light jacket. I also wore comfortable shoes because I knew the path could be muddy after rain. I left home early, around eight, and took a bus to the edge of the city. From there, I walked for about twenty minutes until I reached the start of the trail. At first the hike was easy. The road was wide, and I could walk fast. But after a while it became narrower and steeper. I had to slow down and watch my steps. I met a few people on the way—some were jogging, some were walking dogs, and others were taking photos. My favorite part was the view near the top. There was a quiet spot with rocks and tall trees, and I could see the city in the distance. I sat there for a while, ate my sandwich, and just listened to the wind. It felt peaceful, like my mind finally had space. On the way down, I took a different route. It was a bit longer, but it was more interesting because it went next to a small river. I almost slipped once, but luckily I caught myself. When I got back home in the afternoon, I was tired, but in a good way. My legs hurt a little, but my mood was much better. Now I want to do this more often. It doesn’t cost much, it reduces stress, and it helps me feel more active. Next time, I’m going to invite a friend, but I’m also fine going alone.
