5:00 am – my alarm went of and I am out of bed. Quick shower and the carefully prepared equipment is on its way to the car. Audiobook connected to the radio and the tour can start. Empty roads that early. I plan to find my first cache in Oppdal, about 150 km from Molde….

The short summer in Romsdal is coming to an end (that is realism, not pessimism^^) and I want to take the opportunity to do some more geocaching. After successfully completing the challenge “Møre og Romsdal rundt” where you have to find one cache in every municipality of the county, I would like to do the…

When putting out geocaches you are responsible for checking every now and then, that they are still in place and everything is ready to use. This road opens in June/July and is open util the first snow in November (or whenever this is). So this is a summer task. I started with my journey to Åfarnes…

I got carried away again. After some thinking I found out I could save a lot of money by rearranging my flights. I booked my trip to Hong Kong in October using 80.000 Eurobonus miles, just paying 700 Norwegian Kroner for fees and taxes. Economy+ is worth it (more legroom etc.). And I already started…

A whole day out. Started early to get my glasses fixed in Dortmund. Got the best customer service possible. Cut down the time from one week – which would have meant going around in old glasses for a on time – to 1 hour because I have to travel so far. Perfect! A little bit…

A nice and sunny day to wake up. Fresh rolls from the bakery and late breakfast. Plan for the day is to go to the Münsterland north of where my parents live. a 45 minute drive over side roads (highway is boring in nice weather). First stopp is Nordkirchen castle, a nice “Versailles style” castle…

Finally two weeks of holidays. Spending 9 days in Germany and 6 days in Stockholm. Starting from the airport at 10 am has some advantages. You can “sleep in” – at least more than taking the 7 am flight and take the cheaper bus (1/10th of the taxi price). Hoping for some better weather home…

Zoom-lenses I own two zoom lenses. One for everyday (24-70) and one that I use more and more for (telephoto and ultra-wide). I combine both Tamron and the original Canon lenses. Tamron offers very good quality for what I need (and can do with it) with a more affordable price tag. The Tamron is the only one…
