This Year so far

A perfect Winter

This winter we received a fair amount of snow early on and it stayed cold continuously resulting in really good snow-conditions throughout the whole winter. Aside the usual cross-country skiing, touring-skiing, and snowboarding, I also organised a horse-sleigh-ride with the Outdoor Trondheim Meetup and went dog-sleigh riding with my mother who visited me.
Aside the outdoor activities, there were plenty of good concerts all across town and also the monthly mapathons I am organising as part of my new engagement with Engineers without Borders.
The cats were of course getting frustrated by the masses of useless white stuff outside, blocking their way to the usual ‘hunting grounds’ 😉






Last Year in Review

A lot of time has passed since my last update and much as happened. I will briefly and mostly visually summarise the key events:

September – Jervfjellet Hike

A few years back, a friend of mine started the Trondheim Outdoor group on Meetup.com in order to organised social hikes. After I joined a few times, she asked me to join in with organising hikes and we decided to split the task between us; she focused on the family friendly Sunday hikes, while I focused more on the adventurous activities. While I could be more active than I actually am, I still manage some continuity, so in September I organised a two-day-hike with camping up on Jervfjellet, behind Jonsvatnet.



September – Freediving on Skårøya

Another friend of mine had been telling me how amazing free-diving here in the area is, so summer ’17 I finally gave in, bought the gear, and joined him diving. And how right he was! I joined the Trondheim Fridykkerklubb for their trip to Skårøya, a small and island at the edge of Hitra, one of the bigger islands at the coast near Trondheim. With about 40 free-divers we stayed in an old school building on the island and had all the kayaks, row-boats, and even a motor-boat with skipper at our disposal. With the autumn-weather on our side, we had the most amazing free-diving weekend!




October – Visiting Family in Hamburg

Strolling through the city, modern art, and poetry slam.


November – Well You Know …

December – Julehygge


I ♥ Trd

So it has been slightly over two years now, and I must say I love this place. From beautiful nature, interesting city live, and a good music scene to the new water-front with bbq, it has it all!

Screw You Tire!

… on the way home from work, I noticed this clicking sound from my front left tire and thought: “I should remove that stone when I get home …”
Turns out it wasn’t a stone 🙁

Does anyone have experience with repairing a punctured tire?
