The work that Janez does is certainly worthy of respect.
It makes the path easier for many. That's the essence of his work. And if he thereby fulfills his inner need to help others, both sides are satisfied.
There are few such "heroes" who pick up trash after others in the mountains, remove obstacles from paths or, like Janez, maintain paths for free.
Many "heroes" are found who only complain and feel the need to point out other people.
Janez, thanks for the good work done.
"If you haven't often felt joy from good work, you've neglected a lot, first and foremost yourself". (A. Neilen)
