Alright, the day to splash is getting closer as we speak, and I add and remove things on the things-that-should-be-done-before-splash-list as I go. First of all I needed to go to Cork once more, since I need to repair the dinghy the right way, but also because I […]

Yesterday I jumped on a new project that would be very beneficial if I can get done prior getting Away into the water – making sure that the dinghy doesn’t leak. To be honest, last time I inflated it I thought it had been target practice for someone […]

I realize that it was some time since I updated. Well, there is a good reason for that. I’ve kept myself busy and every evening I crashed in bed after making dinner, topped off with some Spanish class. So every night when I normally write a post I’ve […]

Ah, yes! Today it’s been amazing! Days like this is what you dream of in the winter time, where the sun keeps you warm until it is just about to set after nine o’clock, having a full day of sunshine and a nice breeze. This weekend I got […]

It is quite common to learn something every day, even if it is minor things, but this time it is something that I wanted to learn for some time. I have been thinking of learning how to edit and upload videos to YouTube for my adventures, and today […]
