Friday July 12th 2019 I had a good night’s sleep and a wonderful extensive breakfast. I had plenty of time in the morning, so I relaxed a bit in my hotel room before checking out. I went to the local visitors information centre where I left the luggage I wasn’t taking with me on theContinueContinue reading “Vasaloppsleden day 1 – Berga to Smågan (10 km)”

Falling to pieces
Reynisfjara (Iceland) was stunning! Incredible basalt formations, puffins, foamy waves…and a part of the beach we couldn’t visit. The reason for this was that recently, big boulders and smaller rubble had fallen down from the cliff above, as you can see in this photo. And even when we were there, some rocks came tumbling down.ContinueContinue reading “Falling to pieces”

Canals
There are many ways to enjoy the Amsterdam canals! For example, you can take a boat out, go water biking, or take a boat tour. Please, just don’t swim in these canals, it’s gross as! (Luckily I don’t speak from experience!)
Fjällräven Trekker Event
A few weeks ago, I received an invite to a Fjällräven Trekker Event at the Fjällräven Brand Center in Amsterdam. I thought it would be good fun, and a cool way to meet like-minded outdoorsy folks, so I decided to go. The Trekker Event was last night. I was exhausted from very hectic times atContinueContinue reading “Fjällräven Trekker Event”
