day 175: 兰州 (Lanzhou) = 0km

Oh yeah, finally:

New trekking poles:

And NEW SHOES:

They feel lighter than my old ones, maybe more like shoes than boots.

It feels good wearing them, but I guess I’ll only be able to pass some kind of judgement after a few days on the trail.

For now, I feel very hopeful and…

…happy!
