After I’ve been struggling to motivate myself for work I’ve decided to set an end to this, make better use of my time and rather than drowning myself in guilt and pity go hiking instead. You’ll find me on Sörmlandsleden the coming weeks. Plan is to do all the 600km of the main track. We’ll see how it goes.

Met my friend again. Just when I left home. 💕
Home sweet home

Need to get past Södertälje today. Not my favorite stretch. Thus I’m treating myself with a burger at my favorite place.

The burger was fantastic. As always.

Home sweet home. It was another long day. But shorter than I thought. There’s a spot next to a recycling facility which is quite noisy but otherwise beautiful. It’s not as loud as I feared and I’ve got ear plugs.

A young(?) female(?) moose(?).

Swedish “streetart” again
Was another tough day. On the yay side, had my first bird bath and now I feel at least somewhat fresh and clean again.
Gear failure. Either my phone or my power bank is shit. Something drained all my batteries. So now I have to be very conservative. Leaving the phone off most of the day. 😒

Lucky me, not completely unexpected, found a power outlet to remedy my situation. Sort of.

Another beautiful camp spot, took another bird bath and washed my clothes.

Yesterday was rather challenging, got into hard rain and thunderstorms while being very exposed. Kept on raining until nightfall. Managed to pitch tarp and hammock nonetheless without anything getting wet. Little proud of myself. Had a fantastic spot and could watch birds all morning, after a 12 hours sleep. No pics for obvious reasons.
Dinner time
Don’t wanna leave this place. Can’t I just be lazy today and listen to birds all day?

Wolf 🐺

There’s even some pieces of bones in it. 😱

Made it to Malmköping. Lady at the front desk of the camping lets me charge my power bank. 🥰
Lost my little blue beloved ditty bag. 😭😫🤬

Omg, got it back *mwah*

Lost it at the campground when I left my power bank to charge.

But then I plugged in the power bank with the wrong port and now it didn’t charge at all 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Would have been too nice. I hate this new power bank!

@zeank
Do you want to name it so we know to avoid it?

@PaddelBanditen well, I might be doing it some injustice. But fwiiw it’s the new Flextail 10.000 mAh.

Downloaded the manual now and I understand it a bit better. It has two modes for charging. Fast and slow. I tried activating the slow mode but instead activated fast mode. I’ll give it another try now but things look more promising.

@PaddelBanditen Also, it stops at 10% charge left and keeps that as an emergency reserve I’ve now learned… so it looks empty but isn’t. 😒🤦‍♂️
@PaddelBanditen the charging port is marked orange, now I know that too …
