Forests, Meadows, and Creeks
My favorite outside activity is hiking, because I like feeling closer to nature. Hiking helps me disconnect from the constant chaos of everyday life and makes me feel more alive. Last year I tackled a trail I had been dreaming about for years. I live in a mid-sized city, so sometimes I feel the need to escape. There's a little hilly area nearby, so I usually go there if I need a break. There's a beautiful little lake surrounded by tall trees where I often spend some time. I'm planning several trips for the future, some in my home country, others abroad.

We use “closer” when we are making comparisons. For example: John lives closerto the park than Jim.

Is the “hilly area” and “beautiful lake surrounded by tall trees” in the same location? Or are you referring to two different places? You could replace “little” with “small” to eliminate repetitiveness.

I’m a fellow hiker and so was drawn to your post. :) Have a great day!

Thank you!
Yes, they're in the same location. More precisely, the lake is located in the hilly area. I could express myself more precisely, right? 😀

You could say, “There’s a little hilly area nearby, so I usually go there if I need a break. There’s a beautiful little lake there surrounded by tall trees. I often spend time there.”
