2nd day in my sailing tour to Sweden was all downwind sailing. It was fun to play with course direction and building up speed for surfing on the waves: More track details here: > https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/7751332362 There was so much tailwind that I sailed with the engine down in the water. When put in “neutral”, itContinue reading “Downwind Sailing and Surfing”

TT Phase 4: The Sea
My Touring Test went roughly through three phases so far: Travelling all over Sweden (2020 May – August) Domestic life in Skåne (2020 September – 2021 April) Nomadic life in Southern Sweden (2021 April – September) Five weeks ago I bought a sailing boat (Tanenui 28 catamaran). It makes no sense. I had no plan.Continue reading “TT Phase 4: The Sea”

Weather Refuge in Kitchen Hull
We had two days of rainy, stormy weather. The electric heater helps us drying in the kitchen hull. Kira could not wait to get onto the boat and under deck. Nach zwei Tagen mit Regen und Sturm hilft uns der kleine Heizlüfter beim Trocknen. Die stärkste Stufe ist sogar zu warm. Und Kira ist inzwischenContinue reading “Weather Refuge in Kitchen Hull”
Minimal Dwelling
After 2 months of living in a real house I still kept many camping habits. Still I still own mostly just the stuff which I brought in my car and I don’t miss anything. So far I refused to switch on electrical heating but rather wear my comfy outdoor clothes at home. The house offersContinue reading “Minimal Dwelling”
it fits
After 16 months I lifted the roof tent for the first time. It feels unfamiliar but right. This is the first place, after all, where it fits. Hier passt es zum ersten Mal.
An Land
Beim Spazieren in Skillinge gehe ich oft am Hafen vorbei. Im Hafen gibt es eine kleine Werft mit wechselnden Gästen. Dieses kleine Nutzfahrzeug-Boot hier im Bild mag ich besonders. Es war nur kurz zu Besuch in der Werft. Es geht ihm also gut. So wie Kira und mir.
