    I had a great swim this morning with tailwind.
    And I'm so happy I found shelter behind some bushes on the beach from the wind.
    This is the first Town I've been in without minarets.
    I went to the market and bought some tuna fishing cans and macaroons.
    In the shop there is very much more alcohol than food.
    So I bought myself some beers.    Read more

    Camp site Gülçavuş Köyü

    May 9, 2025 in Turkey ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Today I climbed the Sandy Shore to seek shelter in the Shadow under the trees. I have to be sure that the ground is leaning a little bit if it starts to rain so the water doesn't get stuck under my tent. I'm so pleased that I used the SUBTECH because it's also a backpack at the same time as a raft, so easy to move around. Starting to get a little bit worrying about the heat that will come in a couple of weeks, what will I do if I don't find Shadow to put the tent. Let's see how long I last in the heat that is coming, before I go to Sweden.Read more

    Camp site Vakif

    May 8–9, 2025 in Turkey ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    Today I made 7,000 M and for once I have concrete beneath my tent it's clean and no sand I love it.
    This place is awesome. It had to be a paradise once ,but now everything is run down and destroyed. I don't know what happened here but it's a marvelous place.
    When I stop swimming I secure my pull buoy to my bag and take it up on the shore. I brought my small bag up to my camping site, and went back to the Shore to get my big bag. But my pullbuoy was missing, f*** happened and I saw it floating on the water like hundred meters away so I have to run along the beach to get it.    Read more

    This morning was a pretty nice swim smooth water no waves no wind so 4,300 I think it was really fast.
    I came on shore and saw a restaurant and I thought I would go and put my tent under its roof. Glad i didn't, after two hours they came and they started working with the tables. They will open up next weekend. My tent is fine on the beach in the sand. There's a market just under 200 meters from my place so I went there and bought two beers and drank them cold.
    I was sleeping and somebody was shouting my name and it was the restaurant owner the house just above my tent is he's. I shouted come come eat. So I got a wonderful chicken pasta and salad and some beers.
    This morning I lost my Crocs in the seaweed it was so muddy so I sank down to my knees and my Crocs got stuck in the mud.    Read more

    5,500 today and once again swimming through s*** in the water there was a camping with the toilets on the beach and of course the pipe goes directly in the sea.
    Today I will post pictures and show how dirty it is along the beach is here in Turkey it's a really mess so much rubbish. And I found a turtle walking around.
    Strange It was supposed to be a warm Night. I think I know the reason for it was cold, I had put my tent at the end of a ravin with a cold wind coming down from the mountain.
    the night was very humid outside so I have to keep my trucks upside down so they are dry inside when I put in my feet.
    Today I will start swimming around Hej dirty online because I can't see the sun because the mountain beside me is to high.
    The ground was full of these small badtards. Last photo.    Read more

    Well I came on shore after 4,700 m. It was against the current but the wind was tailwind so I got a little bit of help from that. I'm at the lady on the beach she lives there and also for the camping and she showed me around the corner but there was nobody there working. So we went back to her place and just outside her house I asked if I could put my tent over there please. No worries she said that she brought me coffee. I checked Google maps for a restaurant that is open, so I went away to have lunch. The first restaurant was closed so I went to a market where I met a guy. I asked him if he new some restaurants close by that's Open, he said just wait a minute. Then he drove me to an open restaurant.Read more

    Camp site Uzunkum beach

    May 2–3, 2025 in Turkey ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    Hello today the water was cold again I made 3,300 m. When I was swimming I didn't notice that the cliff was hanging out over the water, I smashed my forehead really badly into the rock, I thought now we will be flowing blood in the sea while I'm swimming. I was lucky no Blood came out from the wound. When I got on shore I found some tables to put my stuff on. Tiden took long before Iran Who was living in a caravan just beside came to salut me, and he invited me for breakfast with his wife. After having breakfast I went to see the reception for the camping. There I met Usgur the owner of Uzunkum beach I told him what I'm doing. Guess what he invited me for another breakfast. While we were having breakfast he said tonight you will be asleep in one of my cabins. He went away and talked with his personal and he came back and said to me, I just informed them to give you everything that you want from the kitchen. So now I'm resting in the cabin and it's so warm and cozy and the night will be for me maybe too warm. Wow that dinner was superb now I'm prepared for my 5,000 tomorrow.Read more
