 I'm on the ferry, on the way over to the island, and there's a lot of ice. It's pretty awesome. I've never taken this ferry in the winter, done it a lot in summer, spring, autumn, but never winter. And so, this is a pretty intense day. It's pretty cold too. The distance from the car to the cabin is about one kilometer. Pretty hard work, but luckily it's mostly downhill. So, I'll be fine. Probably two trips, one kilometer each, and we're at the cemetery. Alright, so it's the next morning now, and I arrived yesterday, as you saw. Last night I had a great time just relaxing in front of the fire, eating dinner. Now I'm on my way out to do one more trip to the car to pick up the rest of the water. The reason I'm here at the cabin is to write another e-book. I've written a few books in the past for the sweet natural living community, and I thought it was about time that I wrote a book about running. Alrighty, we're going to head out for a run. Just got ready. It's a fine, fine day. Look at it. The sun is out. Still ice on the ocean, if you're bored or whatever, but spring is on the horizon for sure. Alright, so we've got this one, and the gimbal. Alright, so we have our gimbal set up with the GoPro, and pretty cool. It's got a selfie button, so if I just click this button, it comes around into selfie mode. So that's awesome, and we're going to see if we can do some filming with two cameras today, just to capture more angles, and I don't know how I'm going to do this. So this is where the ferry comes in. We're on an island after all. Mainland is over there, and yeah, this is one of the sunniest spots on the whole island. That's ice floating around. Very nice, very nice spot. It's a very small island from the cabin to the ferry. It's about two and a half kilometers. This island used to be an old mining island, where they mined for iron. So this island is actually known for its iron mines, and they're all over the place. It's not my favorite place to run because it's very hilly, and right now, of course, it's very kind of difficult with the ice and snow in some places. But for the last two summers, I've been doing like a time trial here. I'll put a link to the video up in the corner, where I basically go not all out, but like a tempo type of effort, a little bit harder than that. And I just get a good idea of where I stand in terms of my fitness. So I'll probably be doing that again in a few months. So always a fun event. And if you want to see the whole route, I also have a GoPro video with the gimbal where I film the whole thing. Back at the cabin. And it's melting quickly, guys. Definitely melting quickly day by day. Sun is up there. Probably comes up over there. It goes up like this. This is the highest point. Comes back down, so we don't actually get any sun in this location at this time. In the summer, the sun comes up over there. It goes like this. Up, up, up, up, up, up. And then it sort of goes over the whole, around the whole place and sets over there before it comes back up again, right? Long days in the summer in Norway. Okay, time to chop some wood and then do some strength training. So the wood here is pretty wet. It's been under here for a few years and moisture builds up. So it's a little bit challenging, but I'm trying to look for the ones that are the driest. And chop them into more manageable pieces to get the fire started. Even some small kindle in, is that what they say? The smallest ones. And also get some ready for my mom. She's coming down here when I'm leaving. So I really enjoy chopping wood. It's just a very satisfying process. Just chop, chop, physical work, simple, natural. I love wood. So yeah, really enjoying myself right now. So I'm working on a new e-book and it's hard work. I wouldn't say that I love writing e-books. I've written a few e-books in the past about bananas. I've written about traveling. I've written about sleep. And there's links in the description to those books. But I felt like it was about time that I wrote a book about running. I find that when I'm at home there's too many distractions. I'm too in my normal life and I have all my other obligations. So basically what I've done is that I've just wiped most of my obligations for the whole week. And I'm just headed down here and I'm just every day writing, writing, writing, running, writing, writing, resting and sleeping, writing again next day. So mostly just writing, running and relaxing. And I only have that much writing power in any given day anyway. I get my first session for the day. I'm very creative. Everything flows for at least two hours, maybe three. Then I'm just like, whoa, my brain is fried and I have to get out and I go out for a run, etc. I come home, eat lunch. And then I do my second session for the day. So yeah, I try to maintain the quality and just quickly grind out an e-book in about a week. So that will be the bulk of the writing. I'll do the bulk of the writing here. Then when I get home over the next few weeks, I'll edit it. I'll put in the pictures. I will sort of get the book ready and prepare the landing page, etc. And then I'll launch it for you guys. So definitely stay tuned for my e-book. And of course if you're watching this vlog in like a year, the e-book is going to be linked in the description probably. Alright, that's it. That's it for this time. Heading home. Beautiful weather. Beautiful. It was a great little trip. Got most of the e-books done. And then I'm going to head home to resume life as normal.
