A life within walking distance (and an excursion)

Advertisement

Right now we live a life within walking distance. We don't drive, we don't cycle, we don't use public transport. We go. But soon we will make a small exception and it feels almost terribly exciting, haha.

Houseboats and motorhomes (and electric bikes)

We are doing well in the houseboat right now. The fan heater runs almost all the time and sometimes we even light a fire in the stove. But yes, we are warm and cosy!

The camper van is covered in snow in the car park. Since we don't have winter tyres, we can't go out and drive. And no, we don't have another car.

What about the electric bikes? They'd probably be fine by now, but when the recent weather report predicted 18 degrees below zero, we got a little worried. How much can the Chinese electric bike technology withstand? What do we know ... We took the bikes in and now we take the opportunity to take care of them and polish them a little. So no, no cycling either right now.

Walks here and there

So what do we do? We walk. And then we walk some more. Mostly we walk to the supermarket. In between, there are trips to Vasastan and Kungsholmen, Solna, Sundbyberg, Bromma ...

An excursion

So what kind of excursion are we talking about? Well, today we are going to another end of the capital. We are going to visit a shop and then we are going to meet a friend of ours. Considering that we almost never move outside our little radius nowadays, it feels really exciting, haha. Imagine that life could change like this! Is it like that for you too?

Best this week

The best part of this week is that we have both been working like little ants. Peter is working on the development and commercialisation of the new products (for the the kitchen in the motorhome and the bedroom in the motorhome), and I am working on two reports for the region, i.e. two projects to be finalised. What has been the best part of your week?

The week ahead

The week ahead? There might be some new walking routes, some shopping for some essentials and some blog posts with new angles (that we've come up with during our walks). What does the week ahead look like for you?

Did you miss the last Happy Friday? Read the On the ball, great support and "fat good"!
