Does the walker choose the path, or the path choose the walker? – Garth Nix
When I was recently looking through my photos to create one of my themed photography posts, I saw I actually has a lot of photos of paths. I don’t mean that I just take a lot of photos of pavements, paths can be far more interesting than that 😉 …
Between the autumn colours ~ Aguas de San Ramon, ChileCrossrail Place Roof Garden ~ London
A winding paths into the clouds ~ Dhulikhel, Nepal
In between the red bricks ~ Shoreditch, London
On the way to find a waterfall ~ Cajon del Maipo, Chile
Through the colours and into the trees ~ Lima, Peru
A path to escape the monsoon rain ~ Siem Reap, Cambodia
Up, up, up ~ La Campana, Chile
Around the coast and onto the pier ~ Arica, Chile
Into the unknown ~ Cambodia
The valley ~ Valle de Elqui, Chile
Follow the path to one of the most magnificent sights ~ Taj Mahal, India
That crystal clear water ~ St.Ives, England
From one tree to another ~ Kew Gardens, England
The prettiest path to take you to the tube ~ King’s Cross, London
Directly to the water ~ Pupuya, Chile
Taking the path to the mountains ~ Los Andes, Chile
What do you think; does the path choose you, or do you choose the path?
As you read this on the 1st Feb, I am heading to Patagonia with Carlos for 15 days. We are travelling to some remote places so will be without internet for most of the trip. I have linked up my posts for the next three weeks of Wanderful Wednesday but I’m not sure how much commenting I’ll be able to do. Be back soon with some wanderful adventure photos 😉

Thanks, so glad you liked it!
I love that quote! And to answer the question, I think a little bit of both. Great post #wanderfulwednesday. Have a great trip!!
Totally agree, I think it’s a mix too!
as usual awesome photos!
Thanks Tanja!
I love all your photography themed posts 🙂 I think my favorite one has to be the path in St Ives, solely because I love St Ives so much!!
Thanks Sarah. Ah, I loved St Ives, we went just before moving to Chile and it was just beautiful!
Love this post, and this quote! I think (at least for my path) it’s a little bit of both. I’d like to think that I actively choose my path, but I also do think that fate and “what’s meant to be” has had something to do with it! 😀
Thanks Lauren! I think I agree, I wonder if it was fate that I was supposed to live in Chile!
The very last photo exudes happiness and your love for hiking and exploring the nature, it brought smile to my face, love it!
Thanks so much, such a sweet comment 🙂
Lovely, and though provoking, theme!
Thanks! 🙂
I’m pretty sure I’ve taken a few pictures of pavements in my time! I have an odd fascination with how different pavements are in different parts of the world and how distinctive they are. Yeah I’m weird.
Your photos are all beautiful! And I think I’ve been on the same walkway in Cambodia 🙂
Haha, a pretty pavement can be pretty indeed 😉
I always love a good path picture too because it’s almost like it’s beckoning you to follow it to an unknown destination. The picture that you have of the path leading up to the Taj Mahal is so incredibly breathtaking! I hope that you have a blast in Patagonia!
Totally agree! And now I can’t wait to get sharing about Patagonia, I just don’t know where to start now!
I didn’t know you’ve been to the Taj Mahal! Gorgeous picture of it!!
It was in 2008 and something I’ll never forget!
Such a good theme. Love the Taj Mahal and St Ives pics!
Thank you! The Taj Mahal was breathtaking!
Have to say you come up with a lot of cool ideas to showcase your travels. You have to pass me some creativity. I think we believe we choose the path but since plans change so much, the path ends up choosing you.
Thanks Ruth! I need to think up some new themes now, I’ve used so many now 😉
Beautiful pictures! I’m from Argentina … enjoy the Patagonia 🙂

Nice! We had an amazing time in Patagonia! So good 🙂
Have fun finding fresh paths in Patagonia!
Thanks, we certainly found a lot of amazing ones!
Beautiful pictures! I love the one in King’s Cross. I think the path choose you… I often find myself snapping similar pictures. 😉
Thanks Sara! I love the idea that the path chooses us!
Another great theme! I’m loving that path straight into the water in St. Ives… gorgeous! And ahhhh have fun in Patagonia! Can’t wait to hear all about it!! xx
Thanks Anna! Patagonia was more than I ever imagined, I don’t even know where to start with the blog posts!
Haa I love this ! I noticed when looking back through my travel pics that I take pictures of my feet alot. for instance in canada in sutumn standing amongst bright red maple leaves. I guess that’s my fo to thing. (my mum makes fun of me for it all the time) #wanderfulwednesday
That’s fun! I love how we all have one thing we just keep snapping away at. Mine would be anything colourful, flowers or mountains!
I love your photo posts – the themes always showcase such fantastic destinations!
Thanks Jessi! So glad you enjoy them!
I literally cannot believe it’s been this long since I read a post of yours..like what’s happened with the world? Gosh, anyways, loving these thematic visual posts as well. Love the one of you sitting in front of the water 🙂
Haha, times flies!! Thanks 😉 It’s been a while since I put one of these posts together!
