Number 29: Hey, Inocência is back to the road!!! - May 2007

Hello!

Good news! I got a place in the master in sustainable technology, in Stockholm! Now I am moving to there with Inocência, my bike (actually a very good sustainable technology itself).
I am doing the National Cycle Network number 1, in the eastern Scotish coast, that is part of the North Sea Cycle Route, a route that link Scotland to Norway, crossing Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Dinamarch and Sweden - that is the route that I intend to follow.
This first days were to get used again to the bike, and I did not cycle many kilometers. And most of the time I did camping on the countryside, or couchsurfing while in cities. The trip until now is in a very low budget, very good to the sustainability of my pocket! ;-)

Cheers!

Spring!

Was not possible to ride the bike over the beaches, is just mud!

A small mountain of luggage!

Good sinalization on the cycle route.

Sometimes I had to cross some bad bridges, or even to go inside the water in smal cooooold streams...

Inocência "waterproof".

First "couchsurf" on the trip, in the Marco's house - Aberdeen. Actually he is not a couchsurfer, but we were on a cybercafe, and when he listen that I was there to try to find a place to stay he invited me. Gracias Marco!

My new "house", I bought this new tent because the old one that I brought from Brazil was with many holes...

Luan beach, my first dive on the North Sea, cooooold! WOW!!!

St Andrews.

Old Cathedral, St Andrews. The Saint is the saint protector of Scotland, and his cross is the national flag. The name of the city came because they buried the corpse here.
