When I was 23 and saw the film The Secret Life of Walter Mitty for the first time, my friend Vojta and I set off on a trip around India and into the Himalayas almost immediately ⛰️

It was a massive adventure, from which I’ve only dared to post one single photo on Instagram to this day – a dead man lying in the street. We have experienced a lot, but didn’t find any Sean Penn hiding in the Himalayas, doing all those extreme adventure things all over the world 🌍

It looks like I’ve finally found him after 10 years 😎 Meeting a world-wide ultra legend @palonc.adventure himself in the Tatras and now joining him and @peggy.marvanova on a few sky trails (boulders, hikes and beers) around Arco 🇮🇹 is like finding Sean Penn from The Secret Life of Walter Mitty for real 😅 Finally 💪

Listen to Palonc explaining quantum mechanics, black holes, debating about science, string theory and even the hypothesis that we may actually be living in a simulation 😁, while you fight hard during “recovery walk” = you’re conquering the highest mountain in the area, chasing a real storm ⚡, or running/ hiking/ climbing up and running down massive local peaks – that’s a feeling I’d pay for all I have without any doubt 👌

I hope, I can already say that we haven’t seen each other for the last time and we’ve come up with something together already 😤

What an honour to meet Palonc and his wife Peggy and what a trip together with @trailrun.cz and his family 👊

Oh dear simulation, thank you ❤️
