Scandie Walk


This September I went walking in north Sweden. We walked from Abisko to Nikkoluokta, 75 miles in all, mainly along the Kings Trail or Kungsleden as it is known. It was a group holiday; at times it felt like a school trip or being on Swedish Big Brother. My favourite part was staying in the mountain cabins, you could only get to them by foot. They had no running water or electricity and were run by Swedish fairy men. I also got really good at saunas and ate a life's supply of Ryvita. The landscape was pretty awesome too. I spent a lot of time drawing. I've posted a few more on my twitter.
