A UNIQUE opportunity to have an epic adventure from the South of Norway all the way to the NORTH

OK, not exactly a spaceship! - The vehicle is merely a VAN. However, I say this because after traveling for 6 years in it, this is what it more resembles to me! - A vehicle that can accelerate you into outer states of awareness and consciousness - That with enough time and space, will allow you to transcend the present and live beyond the mirror of your former life. The trick however, is to be able to LET GO! Everyday in this vehicle is never the same. With every new place you go to, you experience new feelings, a new sense, a new perspective, and with enough time things surface; you get insights, forgotten memories return - revelations can be had! -you find yourself on an inward journey, where the change isn’t really taking place outside yourself, but within. Travel long enough, and not only will you realise profound things, but you can travel so far on the inside that the world will never look or feel the same again. Like having a whole new you. What if you never travelled long enough in your life? or far-wide enough, never pushed on enough, then maybe you never had enough relativity to get a good enough sense of who or what you really are? -‘You can´t know where you stand, until you’re looking back’. This is what I love about travelling. It leads you closer to a greater sense of truth and reality. A journey of self discovery. And the better you know yourself the better you know how to serve yourself! Sound too deep? Well I’m not offering something casual here, nothing meaningless, just an opportunity to show you the otherside ; ) —Interested?? Feel like taking a journey up and through to the FAR north of Norway? A journey through the mountains both outer and inner? A very natural journey, where we flow and go where we will? One that will challenge you through raw natural beauty, to look within. This is not a trip for comfort, but I will be there to guide a careful balance between exposure to the wild and the stories it has to tell, and just chilling the hell out! -Fortunately, something I’m good at! In the vehicle you will be made to feel as welcome as you are. Free to totally relax and feel at home in this little green alien vehicle that houses the spirit of an age-old, humble cabin. The vehicle is cosy and sufficiently comfortable, and due to having a wood burner means you can be warm, even when temperatures are as low as -30C outside. However due to it being a Norwegian winter trip, the environment outside can be VERY challenging, however the challenges it offers are what allows us to find real treasures if we push on long enough. Too much comfort and you will take back only little, not really experiencing what was really there, and too little comfort will make you want to turn back, but if we have the right amount of comforts and are able to push on through all the challenges, then you have a chance at taking home not just awesome memories, but real change and meaning. This is an opportunity to become stronger; more focused, more clearer, more flexible, more insightful, to learn important things about yourself that will give you better perspective in your life. This is an opportunity to really GROW, and even heal things that were buried within. There is really no end to the benefits, it’s just a matter of having enough time, and be able to work through all of the challenges that the accelerated change will bring. Because living like this means things change fast. On top of all of this, we are going to have an awesome time in the process! Leading the trip in this environment requires a strong leading roll in order to overcome the challenges. You’ll see me doing a lot for you and for us, and you’ll be thankful you have me as your guide, especially if things get difficult. I will be very aware, making sure everything is going well, that you are safe, comfortable enough and essentially having a great time! I do however want you to know that there will be few formalities, because I don’t want you to feel like Ím your ´guide´ or you’re my ‘customer’ or ‘this is my vehicle’ - I really focus on allowing things to be as relaxed and as natural as possible, just like two good friends! - This way we can have a much more authentic time! The idea is that we start the trip from the very south of Norway, officially, but since I am currently in Switzerland, I will be driving from here. There is some flexibility therefore, making it possible to come and collect you if you are on route, or we can agree on a suitable meeting point. The route I will take will be up through Germany, into Denmark, then on into Sweden, before reaching the border of Norway. From there we are absolutely FREE to go where we want. We will stay open and take it day by day. Since I have experienced 2 full Norwegian winters in a van, I have lots of ideas and map-saved places we can choose from. This way we can move forward based on how we feel. There are plenty of amazing places in Norway, you can’t go wrong. Will certainly be an awesome opportunity for photography, or for skiing, or snowshoeing, and a million other things. When we do make it to the north, I will take us to some amazing places to get an immersive experience of the Aurora lights, and believe me there is a difference between just seeing the lights than when they are really fully out and very bright! For the lights it is best to have as much time as possible to wait for them, but really is worth the wait and the long drive up there to see them. Just something that has to be done once in your life at least! Something we can do along the way is to stay at a cabin for a day or so. I know of an old cabin we can stay at which will give you a traditional Norwegian cabin experience. Something I absolutely love. There really is a lot we can do and either way this will be a very rich experience. I wondered whether 4 weeks would be too long, but then realised that I’m still going even after 6 years! - it’s never really enough. The time just goes so fast! I think 1 month would be a nice little round experience that will still give you a great sense of an adventure. With this duration of time you can better absorb everything, and feel a real sense of living on the road or out in the wilderness. —Still interested?? During this trip there will be plenty of time to do your own thing. A big part of a winter trip is just enjoying the time inside being warm and cosy -listening to music, writing, drawing -being creative. Will allow us time to have some depth in our conversations -to better connect. This is the time where we also connect to the environment, to absorb the atmosphere, go out into the surroundings and do fun things. I’ve even sat for weeks in some locations like this, letting the snow pile up whilst I dwell there and experience what it’s like as if I was living there in a Norwegian cabin. The longer you can stay parked the more you really absorb from the place, and every place has a different feel and invokes different things. I tend to move naturally. Sometimes you just feel when it’s time to go, and some places you never want to leave. Probably the biggest concern is about sharing a small space. I can really understand this concern. I can’t speak for you, I don’t know who you are or how you are. But as long as you are fairly comfortable in yourself you should be fine. Especially if you know what to expect. Like, of course there will be times where you feel like being silent, on the inner, but I will recognise this feeling and make you feel totally comfortable to just be how you need to be. We don’t choose these feelings, it’s what we do with them. From my side there won’t be any awkwardness, I am very good with these things, very good at giving the space necessary to just be. I won’t be taking anything personal, and you can tell me absolutely anything. You’d have to try real hard to hurt my feelings. I’m just extremely stable within. So very good at being open and calm, very understanding. Working or getting on with people is actually my greatest strength, and this is the most exciting part of the trip for me -to be able to share it, and go through a journey together, and to offer someone a chance to experience something meaningful, which I can certainly offer. So this an opportunity that best suits someone seeking something deeper. If you want ‘just a guide’ then there are plenty of pretentious trips you can pay for, too many in fact.. but with me you will truly have an opportunity to experience something unique and authentic. OTHER DETAILS: - the van is 7 meters, with a living space of 4.4 x 2 - No toilet or shower If you’ve ever camped out in nature then this won’t be surprising. Have done this for 6 years. A part of the fun. Doesn’t have to be a problem at all. Showering involves warming some water and washing outside, or we just go to a camping ground whenever we want to shower. Easy. - there is limited electricity in a van, so we must use it wisely. (Please let me know what sort of items you will need to charge) - you will only need to bring warm clothing and a good set of boots, ideally snow boots and a hiking pair. I have things like headlights and other outdoor gear. You may want to bring skis/snowboard or snow shoes - Food costs we share, all else is included in the main cost (accept if we decide on doing some paid activities) -I am pretty much vegan, so would appreciate not having any meat in the van - All bedsheets and covers will be totally fresh - You get a double sized bed, I sleep on a single - There is a partitioning curtain for privacy if needed - It may be possible to bring your dog -and my small dog will likely be joining along - smoking tobacco must be done outside - Will need you to be responsible with trash and keeping the outdoors clean - Ear plugs or headphones can be very useful to bring - Dates are highly flexible -I don’t mind hanging around a little longer if we need or prefer that. - I can drive you back out of Norway or you can catch a flight - Departure dates are flexible *If you are interested then we will first have a video call to get a feel for each other and discuss things. I can tell you more about the conditions, what to expect etc. This won’t be a ‘first come first served basis’ - given the nature of the trip I will have to choose someone to join. I won’t have much information to judge from, but I will make a choice the best I can. I just really want the right person, not just someone who I believe will get on well with me, but I also need to feel like the person joining will be able to really embrace the trip and not want to give up midway through. So hopefully you are confident this is something you’ll love to do! Hope to hear from you soon!!
