Been thinking these days that in each country visited, I always had a little motto, saying, philosophy that would get me through the day… In Norway my philosophy was to “take on one humongous hill at a time and don’t think about the next one…” I can’t believe it sometimes that I actually made it over … Continue reading
Have been looking and searching for these alternative nature sites that you camp for free at. However havent had much luck finding them using the normal map but I did come across these ‘shelters’ that you can also stay in for free and so thinking they are something of a similar. There either like these wig-wams or they can be … Continue reading
Denmark is a bit of an odd one for me really. I know I really really like it, I just don’t know whether I can love it as much as Norway. The way I have cycled from Hamburg (West along the Elbe and then North) you just sort of slip into Denmark and your here, all very … Continue reading
So I havent blogged for sometime now – ‘searching endlessly for internet’ not being the reason. I left Sweden just over a week ago to surprise visit my big sister with flowers and wine (and a smelly tent and shoes) – she lives in Hamburg with her husband. I choose to cross by ferry from Trelleborg to … Continue reading

I have spent many many hours trying to first explain Internet – always thought Internet was a word that was the same in many languages – like the profound brand names such as Coca Cola or McDonald’s. Not here, no comprende of “Wifi, website, … Continue reading
My repair kit was stolen lastnight!!!…cant believe it – I feel so upset and violated that someone should steal from me in the middle of the night whilst I was sleeping. There was no such value really to my repair kit, but it was the fact I woke up so happy of getting a half decent nights sleep … Continue reading
Since coming over to the south-east coast it has been incredible weather. My days have dropped down to sometimes only miles a day but I’m just loving being here. It has a different feeling to it in comparison to north-west Sweden – up there is felt very full on and (as it was midsummer) very hectic. I feel mean saying this … Continue reading
This was of the nicest couple of days ever since getting to Sweden. I was cycling down the east coast from around Ahus south. If you are looking to go cycling with little effort and amazing places to picnic and take lazy afternoon naps on the beach, then this is the place for you. The towns … Continue reading
Now im not one that looks particularly great in lycra but I had endured it so far on the bike tour. Pulling and tugging at it to get it on after taking a shower – feels like im putting on a wetsuit and then the heat has caused some reaction with my skin and … Continue reading
Today I left the north-west of Sweden and headed south to catch up with an old friend. The distance was too much to cover before she left the east coast and headed up to North north, so I bused and trained it there – can’t say it was a nice experience but the public transport works good over here and … Continue reading
