    58 degrees North

    Since our last update from Ekenäs about 10 days ago, we’ve been sailing 170 nautical miles along the coast towards the north. On our sail yesterday, we crossed the 58th degree North, which means that we are now further north than the northern tip of Denmark. Last week we spent some days in a lagoon…

    Summer in Sweden

    We sailed from Christiansø near Bornholm back to Sweden on Saturday, and have since then been making our way up the coast to Öland, a big island that lies along the Swedish coast around Kalmar. The wind seems a little indecisive at the moment and has been quite weak for some days, but the temperatures…

    1 month of sailing

    As we set sails for the first time on the 19th of April, today marks our first month of sailing! It seems like a good opportunity to reflect a little on the time spent sailing so far. This fits perfectly with our current location – today we sailed from Bornholm to the small island Christiansø,…

    Since our arrival to Bornholm several things have changed. Starting with the crew, Johannes a friend from Dresden arrived and will stay with us until we are back to mainland Sweden.

    A little update to let you know, that we made it to Sweden yesterday! We can’t wait to explore Sweden in the next months to come, although we will have a little re-entry into Denmark when visiting Bornholm. It feels good to have arrived in the country of Kanelbullar, maybe we will go hunt down…

    We like Møn

    Yesterday we spent a day on land, as we wanted to go explore Møns Klint. After a quite cold and windy bike ride, we arrived at the Geocenter and found a little bus shed, from which we followed Paul’s brothers diploma defence – congrats Jakob, super well done!! Then we explored the cliffs by foot…

    Island-hopping in Småland

    We’ve just spent some really nice days on Omø, a tiny island in the Great Belt (Paul’s favourite island!). As always we had a great time, and yesterday the snack bar even opened so we could eat some delicious fries 🙂 Today we left Omø with the plan of going all the way to Stubbekøbing.…

    Motor Factory Marstal

    As the next couple of days are very stormy, we are staying in Marstal on the island Ærø at the moment, enjoying the cute town and waiting for good sailing conditions. We had read about a project where three local women had bought an old motor factory that had gone bankrupt and turned it into…
