Join the boat!
When I’m on the road in my van, I always have my red rubber boat with me. It only takes a few minutes to switch from the road to the water. What freedom! The best paddling spot for me is not in the far north of Scandinavia, where I spend a lot of time, but just around the corner. On my favourite stretch, I paddle away from the stress of everyday life in peace and quiet, accompanied by beavers and kingfishers.
