Ok, so I want to write up one more post about my travels the last two months, because I have quite a lot left to say that I didn't fit in any of the blogs I wrote before. First, I should say that, obviously, I had my ups and downs during this trip but in the end I must admit, I was very lucky and in the end it all turned out perfectly good - as it always does, of course. I was lucky with the weather - after Norway it literally only ever rained when I was staying...

I have arrived! After almost 2 months travelled, something between 2000 and 3000 kilometres cycled, many nights slept under the stars in seven different countries, last night I arrived at my new home. I have a nice room for myself (well, when I kick the kids out) in a rather fancy apartment on the 17th floor in one of several buildings of the same kind on the northern shore of the Gulf of Izmir. I just wanted you to know that I arrived safely and that I am start...

Obviously, again nothing turned out like planned - which now is partly due to the fact that my plans were very loose on purpose because I wanted to be flexible and therefore I didn't really look into all the details of my rough plan - which was a mistake maybe, but then, it all turns out fine in the end. After leaving Kiel and playing one last football match...

I have spent a whole week in Kiel stupidly assuming that this would give me time to relax and continue my blog. Let's say: I was so busy enjoying time with my friends that I had very little time for other things. Which is not bad in itself... Now I am in the train - again - and I have time to write. So, I ended the last blog in the ferry from Gothenburg to Frederikshavn (Denmark). The weather forecast was rather bad for Monday and not too good for Tuesday so I ...
