I met Manuel today. He is probably the only person I have met on this trip so far, who has his priorities straight. When I met him he was carrying steaks, vegetables, cheese and all the good kind of food! He is cooking all of that while being on the road with his bike. I can learn a thing or two from Manuel! He even invited me to a barbecue in Tromsø, but I had my eyes on the road ahead.

Today, after a very slow and under-motivated start, it felt like I could ride on forever. I had two 7-Eleven Samosas in the morning. It was not too hot, not too cold. It was somewhat windy, but I got used to it at this point. The landscape is getting more rugged, which I absolutely love!

But then, I saw a spot and thought I’ll regret not camping there! It is a little rocky to put pegs in, but nothing a little bit of rope can’t solve.
