A new chapter.
Every Wednesday a new episode from one of my favorite Podcasts is released. Last Wednesday @bjornochnavid raised a lot of interesting topics as usual, among other things about a Santa Teresa in Costa Rica. @natthiko explained his experience so good, somehow throwing me back to our stay in Santa Teresa during our gap year. Nostalgic, and only being able to see the ”good times” during our year away from the routine and musts back in Europe. 3 months later, in Colombia, we got to know that the ”twisted” ankle I arrived with to Santa Teresa actually were broken, at two places and that I have a rather high pain barrier. The fractures have healed now but the foot is not the same. Sometimes the pain come back, the ligaments make funny noises just to remind me.
We got to know each other, we got to know our self better, and we got to see a lot of other realities. Why do I write all this now? As I listened to Björn describing how he explored the hills and beaches of Mal País with his quad bike I zoomed out to when we did the same. It was indeed one of my favorite destinations during our trip. But Costa Rica as such.. @quirosdelacerda I don't know ;) During our days in Santa Teresa we still had so many months of traveling in front of us, and then a planned life in Germany, a new adventure, and we did not know was waiting for us. As usual we (I) worried about the wrong things, and everything turned out just as it should. We left with little and came back with nothing, at least no material things.
We returned to Sweden and Germany on Emergency Passports issued in Barcelona, owning only the cash our parents had to send us through Western Union and the clothes we were wearing the night someone stole everything we had, 6 days before we were going home. Computers, cameragear, creditcards, clothes, dirty underwear. You name it. But that is another story that I have not yet told.
So if anyone has read this long and -I just wanted to say that I have managed to learn German in five months and that I have found a job. A new adventure can start. Action!

July 2016, a typical ”afterwork” activity in Geilo. I miss being alone in the mountains, wake up to a crisp morning, preparing a coffee and then continue the walk and be back home for lunch.
However, now I live only a few hours drive from the Alps. Maybe it is not as wild and secluded as the Scandinavian mountains, but it is close, the weather is better and the peaks, the peaks are higher! 🏕⛰🛤
