Been in the tent now for 16 hours. It’s raining so hard the condensation on the inside of the flysheet is getting knocked off, hitting the inner mesh and producing a fine spray inside the tent. The joys of Scottish camping. #bigagnes Copper Spur HV UL2. It’s a great lightweight tent, but needs a few tweaks to be perfect.
Our tentfloor is leaking. Sadly the conversation with #bigagnes & #transa ended without constructive solution. They blamed us for using the (wrong) tent.
Time to #diy our own floor!
While buying a tarp (waterproof fabric) in #decathlon we discovered their fablab. We talked with DorothΓ©e & Pantxika who spontanious invited us to use their "Le Prototypage". It was amazing and inspiring to work with their equipment and having support from Pantxika and the team.
Thanks!!
Now we sleep dry again 🀩
At #Salamanca we hunted for shoes. Fiona found some pretty sneakers and ditched her litterly falling apart #scott bike-shoes.
Our seemingly perfect campspot turned out to be in a city park. At 3:20 am the sprinkler system startet drenching our #bigAgnes tent for 30min. Luckily the glued seams held up, but the next morning we discovered the entire floor was leaking. Everything was soaked from below. We are so frustrated about all the expensive hi-tech material!

thanks to #trustroots we camped @ kasper's property near #Aljezur. it was so lovely to share time with interesting and inspiring people that we stayed 5 days to chat, eat and help around the house. marc installed a kitchen sink in the shed and fiona mounted the water connection together with one of the other guests.

due some strong rain we realised that our #tent leaked. luckily we had a tube of seam grip glue with us. so we could glue the leaking areas.
