In August 2024, I participated in the Tro Breizh, an organized hike around Brittany, which follows the historical route of the 7 saints. This year, there were about 500 participants. I also helped as a volunteer setting up the lunch tents and serving meals.
The Tro Breizh is a long-distance pilgrimage around Brittany. I joined with friends for a summer stage between two semesters, carrying just enough gear to stay light on the trails.
Walking for hours with no screen time cleared space to think about what I wanted from the rest of my studies: projects with tangible stakes, and teams where communication is as valued as delivery.
