i was house sitting for vincent
and i look after her house for a week
he did it very well - yeah - yes it was clean now yes very clean - clean and tidy
very good in pearlaberg germany
and now it's time to go to move on let's hit the road
fresh air on my face again i have to say
it was pretty good to do this house sitting one week at the end i stayed 10 days but i was
eight days alone i really enjoy to be to be alone for a little bit relax
i watch a series on netflix i edited three videos lots of photos
so yeah it was good pretty pretty good and
i was also glad that the weather was not very good
and i didn't have to cycle into the rain and into the snow i kinda like snow now
i think i can manage and i really prefer snow to rain i'm less cold in the snow
my hands stay pretty dry and i can warm them up but when it rains
that's terrible you're wet and miserable
anyway heading to hamburg i don't know much about hamburg
probably famous for hamburgers
but it's supposed to be a nice city i think with lots of waters
I think I will hit the river Elbe
in about 10 kilometers or a little bit more i could have gone
almost straight to the to the river and follow the river but it would have been a much longer journey
and i don't feel like doing longer than 100 kilometers because i
i feel a little pain in my knee and i don't want to
to get an inflamed kneecap again so i don't know if i permanently injured my knee
or i don't know to be honest we will see if i'll ever be able to do longer days i don't know
there's something wrong with my knee
and this is a different problem from what i had in lithuania i'm sure they
are related somehow but it's a different type of pain and it's a different type of problem
it's depressing it's depressing i cannot cycle basically
the swans are very scared of me
crossing the river with this barge
4 euro 50 there is nothing for free in germany, fucking hell, could they not build a bridge
for fuck sake it's like the middle age when you had to pay to enter every city to cross every bridge
this is absurd that in 2022 you have to pay to cross a fucking river
with another lovely warm shower host and this is a german couple that are also long distance by travellers
they were everywhere they were in latin america and but also just before the pandemic you were
about to start a world tour the day before they closed the border of germany imagine that
and now they are patiently waiting but they book a flight yes to north america to north america
so maybe you see them somewhere in canada or the u.s or mexico so look out for them lovely people
great dinner great hospitality and loads of traveling stories from latin america from the
road so now sadly i leave only one night with them i wish i would have stayed a little bit longer
but now i go to hamburg yeah so let's hit the road
so today all day along the elbe river
to hamburg with headwind it's gonna be fun
and lots of pain on my knee
perfect perfect
gray and possibly rain very nice i love it
the old windmill guys the weather is shit let's see if
something is coming out from the camera very old
i guess it's a house at the moment
oh my knee hurts a lot still 50 kilometers to go
and it starts drizzling
it was already gray now it's drizzling
crossing the river elbe
this time without paying on the bridge
slow entry into hamburg
i'm getting a bit more centrally into hamburg
but it's 20 minutes past the sunset so i'm not sure i can i can show much around but
I try to do a time lapse
so
you
