Happy campers are already tucked up in bed, in our tent which is pitched upon some bouncy moss (great for bedding) growing on a little rocky patch (bad for tent pegs) in a forest edge, not far from a lake.

We only travelled about 50km away from stockholm today after choosing to hide away from 2 rain storms under a very luckily placed bridge and then a bus stop. From experience we've found it better to stop and stay dry rather than getting soaked and not be able to get warm again or dry our kit. When the sun comes through its lovely, but in any shaded patches or when the wind blows it's like winter again!

Nature is breathing, birds, wind in the trees, unknown animal chatter. Its food for the soul and we need it after last night's restless sleep at a very over-priced campsite. After a night on a site with about every second vehicle being a VW camper, I can close my eyes and still hear the sound of their sliding doors, as statistical odds would say any one of the inhabitants was going for a night wee pretty much every ten minutes. 🙉

For nearly 30 Euros (and with no soap dispensers in the toilets!) we didn't consider that to be money well spent, so tonight we're enjoying some solitude in a wildcamp, which is legal in Sweden! The best things in life are free!Baca lagi
