If there are waves, we surf

That’s the rule, we were told at WSL, and on it went for the three days that we stayed at Supertubos... Peniche & Baleal Surfing the beaches here is great, it seems the swell is always coming in from somewhere. However you have to get past the seaweed and the surf schools. Parking for night has not bored us. There was the In front of the main beaches in Baleal parking, which happens to be right outside a club. The kind of club that doesn’t shut until 5... And the cliff parkin

Portugal. Never a dull moment.

We heard a lot of great things about Portugal; beautiful, great surf and being able to park anywhere. So there was a lot to live up to... It’s really growing on us having been here for a while now, finding our favourite spots to stay and enjoying some great views and meeting a lot of nice people to hang with here. And the surf... oh yes! Belmonte Ended up here by taking a wrong turn, which turned out really good. Watching the sun set behind Torre at Serra de Estrela, the high

Beloved Biarritz

Biarritz has been good to us. I love this place, even though we have all had our first surf injuries, the nights have been too hot for my liking, a bird shat on me, and we have had a few weird wake up calls* It is all forgotten 'cause of the charm, the surf in the mornings, cafés and shopping in the afternoon and dinner on the beach lifestyle. Parked right next to beach Milady, the beach next to Cote ’d Basque, the classic Biarritz surf beach. This was apparently where the f

Dune du Pilat - it’s a sand thing

Had a little vanlife pause. Flew back to Stockholm to do a job for Axfoundation. The life of a freelance photographer. Strange feeling to be in Stockholm and not heading home to my house. Dune Du Pilat - the biggest sand dune in Europe I knew before we left we would have sand everywhere. Turned out to be a true story, the sand is everywhere. Bags, everywhere in the van, the bed, the clothes, the pockets and the bed. To be honest, there is sand coming out of my ears. So we dec

Hanging loose

As soon as we made it to the Surfcoast ( the european one ) we really got in to the whole hang loose feel. Everything is much more relaxed here. Everyone flipflops around with sand and salt in their hair looking at the waves. Topics of the day concerns high tide, low tide and the swell. It seems people have similar thoughts on the important things in life and we even met some people that are doing a similar van, surf and yoga journey. The places we’ve been to this far is Bisc

The Loire Valley- another day another castle

Really getting the hang of vanlife now, parking outside a castle and feeling ever so great. Not always having electricity and wifi and thinking it’s alright. I actually started reading a book the other day. Chambord This castle is stunning, we passed it on a trip before and this time we thought, why not stay this time. Apparantly the guy who built it, around 14 th century was going to use it as a hunting castle and while it took 30 years to build he only ever stayed in it 40

Mosel & Champagne - Autobahn, wine and castles

If autobahn taught us anything its the frase Stau gefahr, yepp that means this is gonna a take a while. I was even cleaning up the van on the way, anyone who knows me knows cleaning is not my fave thing to pass my time with, so oh yeah there was time to be passed. Cochem, Mosel valley Stunning valley with wine ranks on the sloping hills down towards river Mosel. Biking around on great bike roads and hiking up to look at old castle Reichsburg. Totally impressed with all the se

Hello Denmark

The simple ways of van life Sweden - we will be back in December sometime, if all goes well. A bit nervous about being away for so long for some reason, some kind of out-of-the-comfort-zone- feeling. The vanlife has started out well, only hit my head twice today :) It’s a simpler life, a minimalistic living that feels good to try out, especially since I’m all concerned about our mother nature these days, with crazy climate changes and all the plastic in the waters everywhere.

Endless Summer

Hot, hot, hot... Sweden. Who would have thought that the one summer where we are about to have a bit of an *endless summer scenario would turn out to be the hottest summer in Swedish history? Oh well, I guess we are getting acclimated to the heat. Before heading for Europe we are out and about seeing friends and family trying to unwind in this scorching summer we are having in Sweden right now. First stop Norrland. Involved a lot of picking blueberrys, walking the dog, swimmi

Vanlife starts now

And we're off! Van is packed, house is rented out, route is kind of ready and we are so ready to hit the road. Time for leaving our everyday meetings and sitting by the computer desk life for five months. Me and my surferdude heading for a peaceful surf and yoga lifestyle adventure around Europe, with our four-year-old daughter aka little miss Bossy Rollercoaster. We have talked about this trip for some time now... mid life crisis, honeymoon or whatever it is, we are stoked a
