Did you know there are such things as swedish miles… that equate to about 10km? So when someone in Sweden is being helpful and telling something is only a few miles away… expect to be walking a while.
Anyhow, I made it to Karlstad, about 210 miles away from Stockholm due west. Tomorrow, I have the [...]
Well, I’ve done everything in Stockholm that I’ve wanted to. I have been up at the crack of dawn, checked the ferries, went to see the Stockholm Library, and drove down south to a place called Farsta where the Woodland Cemetery is, to see that. Both things were epic, the amount of consideration and detail [...]
Sadly (for my mum that is), I will not be rushing home just because I had no brakes. I’ve done a little asking around at car mechanics and then a harley rider who reminded me of Martin (only a little chunkier and in his 40s), his English was superb and sent me to [...]
All the males have combed their hair, with a wet look effect… straight out of a magazine cover
The locals speak as if they have speech impediments.
When you feel like you’re the ugliest thing on the planet.
Well it took me just over an hour to get here today, I spent 11 hours in bed last night. [...]
Title refers to the sun rising in the North (NNE to be exact) here.
I feel I should fill you in on what I got upto on Tuesday. I kinda skipped that bit. It was a very eventful day. I was just feeling a little ill yesterday.
Back on Tuesday…
I left pretty early skipping breakfast and getting [...]
Hey, didn’t manage to use the internet yesterday. Sweden is brilliant, the roads are great and the women gorgeous and what else matters?
Ok so I had a hellish time yesterday fighting the invisible enemy… the wind was really fierce and freezing and wore me out, although the day was really sunny. After a really rough [...]
I managed to get to bed last night with still not having met any of my room mates… from what i gathered in my sleepy-eyed state was that the couple who had put their beds together were italian… a gay couple. I thought it was a mixed sex room but obviously i was wrong. [...]
Did I say Denmark was cheap? …. [ding ding] ….WRONG!!!
I had a good drive to Copenhagen despite the driving rain. It was like driving underwater: not fun. I have spent the whole afternoon looking for somewhere to eat, drink and internet… THIS PLACE IS SO EXPENSIVE. I’ve walked about 6-8 miles around the [...]
I had the coolest cruise into Ribe this morning, 3 hours that felt like half an hour and the roads were absolutely heaven as soon as I entered Denmark. I took the B roads and did about 100km on these vast straight, smooth well signposted roads leading me all the way to my bed tonight. [...]
This morning got up at 6 something and honestly can’t remember when I was so hot.. it was horrid. Anyhow, stacked up on the buffet breakfast and made myself lunch with it. Then left for a walk.
So on my walk around the city this morning I went to see the botanical gardens and [...]
