What started out as a walking trip of a day, ended being a two-day excursion of a destination we never reached! Fortunately, the scenery more than made up for it.
This is a special story on this site, because it is about a destination never reached. When preparing my trip to Eritrea, I was especially attracted to an excursion to a monastery in the South of the country. According to my guide, I first had to reach Hamm from the southern town of Senafe in two hours, from where it would be less than an hour to reach the monastery. I started out in the morning expecting to be back in the evening. I should have been warned when some local school boys told me it was over 30 km, but I trusted the guide. I followed the road, took shortcuts where possible, walked alongside the edge of the highland, looking down hundreds of metres in the valleys, and truly enjoyed the spectacular landscape. After walking fast for about 4 hours, I reached the village of Serha. When asking about Hamm, a school boy who knew some English pointed to the horizon. I realised that I had to go back to Senafe by bus.
