How corona changed my plans and what I’m up to..
vagabonding continues
We’ll be back in Germany end of may..
the only way to go back is taking a ferry from Lithuania

outtakes happend but I finally got some on camera

Life is boring

keep yourself busy

still working on getting better and stronger
you have to keep your mind busy

This is how pitching my tent works.. quick and easy
Support local business
well as I’m just in Europe it’s not really offroad but there are plans..
good times, good roads, good people
it takes some time to get used to it.. then its done within 5mins
but you could get diry and break your nail
not a rocket science
up to -30 is ok if you’ve got blankets, a car and a sleeping bag
don’t buy expensive gear..
think about what you need and what you can use that you’ve already got
Stay busy during lock down
