Taking some time, we slowly went down from Stockholm along the coast line of the baltic sea, going back to Germany. Traveling for two enitre weeks created the opportunity to go slowly, step by step. How much different from the usual holidays trips where you travel for many hours on a highway or even taking…
The way down to the south takes us to Stockholm. Of course we did what tourists would do in a city. Some shopping, exploring the old city parts, visiting museums, take a boat tour, breathing and in-taking how people live and love in this city. Being so long in wilderness on a calm and simple…
Coming down from Lapland, we struggled. Too much rain, not warm enough to sit outside, and incredibly aggressive clouds of moskitos. Walking outside you felt like a welcome food for a hungry swarm of biting insects. Standing still for just a few seconds, they would sit down all over the clothes (and of course skin,…

A few hundret kilometers further up north, we corssed finally the polar circle – entering the area where there is no sunset on the days of the mid summer (i.e. , now). We decided to take a lot of the smaller (dust) roads, wehre asmetimes, you don’t meet another car for hours. We had some…

Beautiful and peaceful landscapes, waterfalls, and many lakes and rivers. Also, not a lot of people, in particular at this early time in year. In it’s highest…
Traveling up to the north slowly, we are still not planning a lot, just seeing what comes across. On our way, we find beautiful rural places, outside of everything. The nights are getting shorter, the weather is getting better. In fact, we have days of 25C lasting until late evenings. Very enoyable after the long…
After just 3 days in Sweden it feels like we have seen most of what we ever associated with it. Again, we have done no planning at all – based on the learning how to spent time best – but we got a full basket of country insides. We landed with the ferry in Ystad….
Our next chapter has begun. We are heading North. No, we did not exchange our van with this nice Cadillac 🙂 However this photo documents one of the first encounters in the country we are onto: Sweden But first, we step by at our mother’s homes. The night to start with features a beautiful moonlight…
