After a day of rest (boredom) #ViaRhona continues back to camp at stranger's garden. #WelcomeToMyGarden

On my last trip I discovered https://welcometomygarden.org and I *love* the vibe of that community.

DAY 5 (1/2) - Cycling south UK. After an early rise from my tent I cycled a little tour around Dartington Hall, which was very nice and quiet in the morning. I started early to cover the 20km, +540m before noon so I would have some time to visit Dartmouth. Near Dittisham I took an alternative route to avoid traffic, but after going downhill for a good 200m I found out this road was probably in disuse because a fallen tree was blocking the path. Some climbing and scrambling with panniers and my bike, and some bruises and bloody scratches later I arrived at Dartmouth. It's a small, colourful harbour city with some very steep small roads and nice to wander through. After a scone & tea at The Sloping Deck I visited Dartmouth museum and learned about the voyage of the Mayflower. In the late afternoon I took the ferry to Kingswear (2,5£) to cycle the last 8km, +200m to Brixham. I was planning to stay with a WelcomeToMyGarden (https://welcometomygarden.org/), but unfortunately my host never replied. Finding a campsite turned out more challenging than expected, as most only take campervans. Luckily Wall Park Touring and Centry Road Camping saved the day (or rather the night) and after a 0% Guinness, some snacks and dinner I went for a little walk along the South West Coast Trail. August 2025.

Pas mal le #welcomeToMyGarden du jour !

#clemÀVélo

Tiens, #welcometomygarden n'affiche plus aucun spot sur la carte quand on est pas connecté :(
Va falloir que je paie avant de savoir si il y a des chances que je trouve un jardin sur mon itinéraire ?

sehr cool! Gibt’s da noch keinen Hashtag zum leichteren Finden im Fediverse?

edit: klar, gibt’s 🙂

DAY 1 GR17 Libramont > Villance (Couchsurfing at #welcometomygarden host Eric's mom 😅). 28 km, +400m. The hike started off pretty boring since I had to make my way through the uninspiring city of Libramont, but it later turned into a nice, easy hike, making use of several other GR trails. Spent the night warm and toasty in front of a wood stove at Eric's mom's house 🔥😅 after getting some fries with Eric. September 2022.

Il y a des mastonautes qui ont déjà utilisé #welcometomygarden ?
De ce que j'ai trouvé ça a l'air assez clean comme site. Bouton "supprimer mon compte" placé bien en vue sur la page de profil, payant, respect des données personnelles...

@wilms
Ja, seitdem #couchsurfing Gebühr kostet (für jeden, nicht mal "nur host" kostenfrei), hat die Community leider stark nachgelassen (verständlicherweise)
Ich streue und gucke in verschiedenen Communities.
Ich habe noch einen #warmshowers Account, schaue bei #1nitetent und #WelcomeToMyGarden - aber ich bin auch mit dem Zelt unterwegs

Dieses Dachgeber scheint mir unpraktikabel - wer schleppt denn ein 260 Seiten Buch mit... Und auch allgemein

Ansonsten hörte ich noch von #bewelcome

Man, it felt weird having my bike on the platform last year and it feels even weirder having my trailer on here as well. Hope all goes well.

For those wondering: I'm going to a meetup of #WelcomeToMyGarden in #Lier
Basically sleeping there in the evening in tents and in the evening a potluck.
I've never actually participated in welcome to my garden before but I know the creator of the other a bit... Honestly just seemed like a good excuse to go camping again (haven't used this in a while)
