Lithuania (1)
Past the most crosses I’ve ever seen, with endless hospitality and an Indian service. For me it was, as I said, off into the south of Lithuania. To Vilnius, the capital. I’d planned two stops along the way. The first was the „Hill of Crosses“, also called the „Mountain of Crosses“. The Hill of Crosses […]

On from Latvia to Lithuania! With posh accommodation… With tips from my uncle, I’d put together a nice route along the coast from Riga to Klaipėda. Here too there were again the public campsites, or the option of pitching your tent on the beach. Under a bright blue sky I rode through great, wide forest […]

On to Riga. Basketball game and Henning visiting. After a few great, quiet days by the sea, I then set off for Latvia. First towards Vecpiebalga, to my family’s country house! Beforehand I stopped at a campsite to quickly take a shower! Actually the season had long been over, and the manager looked at me […]

Missed the ferry! Couchsurfing in Tallinn and camping on the beach under the stars. For me it was back to Jani’s again. I had to sort out my things and prepare for Estonia and the onward journey. I’d already booked the ferry from Helsinki to Tallinn a few days earlier. I’d also already requested free […]

From a box room in Helsinki to a tipi in the forest, with an Italian evening and lots of trees. Now it was off to Helsinki. Onward on the trip and into the next adventure. What kind of person takes in two holidaymakers in the middle of Helsinki? By the way, a day earlier Jakob […]

Two and a half weeks painting yellow and sailing! Workaway number three. On 23 August I reached Carl’s little farm in Vantaa! Carl had great reviews and feedback on Workaway, and I was confident the next two and a half weeks would be fun. He greeted me warmly and immediately showed me around. I’d actually […]

Lots of gravel, and the first Finnish sauna session of my life. The next morning I set off early! My next waypoint was the entry to the TET Finland. I wanted to ride it all the way down to Helsinki. By the way: my buddy Olli is coming to visit me in southern Finland in […]

From Norway to Finland… off into the warmth! The warmth I’d wanted was here! It was really awesome! As soon as you’d got a little way from the west coast, it felt warmer with every kilometre! Overtired, I found another really great spot by a lake. On a whim I decided to stay here for […]

North Cape From a distance you could already see a big white dome. Because at the North Cape there’s not only the big metal globe but also a museum with a café. On a long road and the last few metres, there was then a small gatehouse. Here you could buy a ticket for the […]

The last kilometres to the North Cape! Through Tromsø, past reindeer… The next morning it continued by ferry! From Botnhamn to Brensholmen we crossed the Norwegian Sea. Off the island of Senja and back to the mainland. From the ferry I could already see the rain far in the distance. A big cloud hung between […]
