Woke at 03:30 after a surprisingly good sleep. Quick breakfast, last checks, and off to the terminal. Ålesund → Amsterdam Check-in and security were both smooth. The little Embraer 175 to Amsterdam was full; I’d paid €40 for extra legroom and it was worth every cent. Banana bread and a drink for a snack —…

Wrapped up a full day at work – and even managed to squeeze in some extra hours to build up my travel time bank. Always thinking ahead! Then: wheels in motion. Car packed and ready, parked neatly in my usual spot. As I pulled into the ferry terminal, it arrived right on cue – love…

With summer holidays just around the corner, I’ve officially entered full prep mode. I’m determined not to fall into my usual last-minute scramble, so this past weekend was dedicated to the essentials: laundry, ironing, and starting to pre-pack. I’m flying out this Thursday – straight from work, no less – and the rest of the…

I cannot wait to finish working on the 7th August and get into my car to Ålesund. I have booked a Smartrom at the airport, which costs me 699 NOK (about 69 USD) for a night. The rooms are basic, but have everything you need. Not to mention that the plane leaves at 6:30 and…

The last day has arrived. One final breakfast at the hotel before packing my bags and checking out. My flight isn’t until 17:00, so there’s still some time left for a little adventure. Yesterday, I found out about Malta’s oldest geocache, placed in 2004—something no geocacher can ignore! And since everything on Malta is relatively…

Today is my last full day in Malta. Unfortunately, I have to head home tomorrow, but I plan to make the most of this final day. It’s driving time again. I hop into my car and head southeast toward Marsaxlokk. As with every drive in Malta, the distance from St. Paul’s Bay isn’t that far,…

Today is a more relaxed day. After waking up early—like every day—and having the same breakfast as always, I head down to the bus terminal. The plan is to be in Balzan by 13:30. But first, I have a mission: completing Malta’s Diamond status on Project-GC. That means finding a geocache in all five regions…

I messed up my alarm and woke up an hour too early, but the real alarm finally went off at 4:35. The smartest thing I did was preordering a Bolt. The driver arrived at 5:05 and took me straight to the ferry terminal—where there was absolutely no parking. Totally worth the 18 euros. Don’t believe…

Today, another tour. After breakfast, I make my way to my car and set off towards Mdina. My guided tour doesn’t start until 11:00, so I have time to find one or two geocaches. Google Maps has a funny way of choosing routes—it feels like I only get narrow shortcuts. Some caches are impossible to…
