Freediving, Tug 2 at Exiles, Malta, Aug 27th

Getting up at 05.15 while on holiday takes some determination but very worthwhile when you meet the sunrise at the dive site.. Casual freediving with Kamilla at Tug 2, Exiles, Sliema, Malta..

Freediving, Inland Sea tunnel & Blue Hole, Gozo, Aug 26th

Sunday session at the dive sites Inland Sea tunnel and the Blue Hole on Gozo. Clear water and amazing views.. I was solo which is not ideal from a safety point, so I didn't push it, just casual swims.. First time there since the Azur Window disappeared into the sea in a big storm, a scenic view that is missed..

Freediving, Ghar Lapsi tunnel, Aug 24th

A few laps through a tunnel at Ghar Lapsi, Malta. Entry from the lagoon is around 2 meters deep and the exit probably around 8 meters deep. Not sure about the length but perhaps 15 meters? Good idea to scout as much as possible, popular passage with scuba divers, and meeting them in the tunnel could be tight. Also, avoid if the waves are on-shore as the water can them pump back and forth in the tunnel..

Freediving, Tug 2, Sliema, Malta, Aug 22nd

Thursday Sunset freediving at Exiles on Tug 2 , Malta with Kamilla. First time in 10 months, but body and mind felt great. Dropping weight, being healthy and doing some cardio before the trip seemed to make a big difference. Did a few swims through the wreck and max depth was probably around 20-22 meters. (Dive computer had no battery..). Awesome session!

Sailing, ARC 2018, Nov 22nd-Dec 10th

On November 21st I flew down to Gran Canaria to join the crew of Challenger 3, a 72 feet sloop participating in the Atlantic Rally for Cruisers 2018. We were 13 people on board in total including the skipper and mate. The ARC is an event that has been running for some 30 years with up towards 200 boats participating in different classes - We were in the monohull racing class. The passage took 15 days and nights, mostly with a fresh breeze from astern and in the later stage we got a couple of squalls to avoid or sail through. After finishing, I spent 1 week in Saint Lucia, a lovely island in the Caribbean. A great sailing adventure and a fantastic holiday!

Hiking, Kindla Nature Reserve, Oct 13th-14th

25 hours in the beautiful nature reserve Kindla, situated north-west of Guldsmedshyttan. Kindla is a 3 hours drive from Stockholm. We were lucky with mostly sunny weather and warm temperatures for the season. We entered from the parking at Kroktjärn, hiked up to Kindlahöjden for lunch and great views from the tower, and then made our way past Kindlamossen to Klosstjärn where we spent the afternoon and evening enjoying the calm scenery while having a nice fire going for hotdogs and coffee.. By noon on Sunday we were back at the starting point, nicely rebooted and ready for city-life again..

Freediving, Tug 2, Exiles Malta, Sept 20th

Sailing Around Åland, July-August 2018

Sailing singlehanded from Herräng a lap around Åland in varied conditions.. First afternoon I headed up to Brännäset, and early in the morning I made my way across Ålands Hav, passing Hellmansundet.. I continued clock-wise on the northern side of the group of islands, mostly motoring.. The second day the wind gradually started to pick up, in the late afternoon reaching gale force gusts at times.. I stayed in Käringsund for 2 nights, doing some maintenance work and relaxing and we got some proper thunder showers the last night.. On my way back to the Roslagen archipelago on the Swedish side, I past a grey seal colony and Märket, a rocky island with a lighthouse marking the boarder between the countries.. 

Sailing Byxelkrok to Herräng July 2018
