Lynn Forbes, known affectionately as 'Glammy,' is reminding Mzansi that sometimes the best company you can keep is your own.

What Lynn Forbes said about her solo hike

In her post, Forbes wrote:

"Be boring. Go for a solo hike on a random Tuesday. Walk at your own pace. Stop when you want to stop. Take the detour that looks interesting. Sit beside the water for as long as you like. No negotiating the route. No keeping up. No waiting for anyone. Just you, your walking shoes and a few hours outside ... and Sebastian, who doesn't talk and just takes the pictures. 📷😂 I've done some pretty big things on my own, but I still think there's something special about simply heading out for a hike by yourself. Turns out, your own company can be pretty good company. 😄"

The cheeky nod to her companion Sebastian, whose sole contribution was snapping photos in silence, added a dose of humour to what was otherwise a deeply reflective post. For Lyn Forbes, solo adventures are nothing new. She famously summited Mount Kilimanjaro as part of Trek4Mandela in 2018, proving she is no stranger to taking on challenges independently. Yet it is the quieter, simpler outings, she suggests, that hold their own kind of magic.
