#throwback – May 28, 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wake up in the sunshine and, for my standards, I set off early. The frame of my cart has now completely broken \u2014 I tape the pieces together and plan a route along paved roads, avoiding the forest trails. At a scenic viewpoint, I spot a van with Spanish plates. It turns out to be the home of Tania and Pablo from @patas_traveling. They\u2019ve embraced vanlife with passion. After working hard for eight months in Galicia, they\u2019re now travelling through Scandinavia until October. Their previous journey was through the Balkans. Their dog has clearly had a long walk and is totally crashed out in the van \u2014 doesn\u2019t even look up when I pass. What a lovely encounter. We agree to keep following each other\u2019s journeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I see a sign pointing to a viewpoint, 200 metres into the forest. I leave my Wheelie by the roadside and head into the greenery. Then panic strikes: I\u2019ve left my Wheelie unattended! The zippers can be locked, and I have a cable lock to secure it \u2014 why didn\u2019t I use them? I tell myself not to overreact. I\u2019ve only seen two people all day, so what are the odds? I walk on. After 200 metres I see nothing. Nor after 400. On my app I realise I\u2019ve gone the wrong way. Panic rises \u2014 without my gear, this entire adventure falls apart. I walk\/run back. My Wheelie is still there in the sun, untouched. The relief is immense. I lock everything up and head to the viewpoint after all. There\u2019s nothing to see. No view \u2014 but a great insight: never again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The landscape becomes more rural, and I\u2019m walking straight into a strong headwind. Suddenly, a huge animal crosses the road \u2014 a wolverine! (the picture is not mine) Wow, that\u2019s rare! I hear thunder and see lightning, but I get lucky: only ten minutes of rain. I find a beautiful camping spot near a lake, where I cook dinner and video call my son for his 23rd birthday. So good to see and talk to him \u2014 I\u2019m incredibly grateful for today\u2019s technology!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
