Please look down the page to see updates from the last days. There are pictures from the 15th of October when I found traces of the Liaoning Great Wall. I head back to walking the Great Wall of China tomorrow and hope the right heel does better this time around. […]
Sorry for not writing for a while. I have been trying to increase my walking distances over the last few days. I get up pretty early and am walking until it starts to get dark. Then it’s time for food and sleep. Because of three blisters on my right heel […]
The forecast said rain today. I have had three blisters on my right heel the last few days. Started walking down the high mountain a week ago with one under my heel. I used some second skin plasters on the blister. Two days later, the crease from this plaster gave […]

On Wednesday I got a chance to meet up with Kim and Andreas from the Great Wall Forum. Andreas and I have joined up on the Great Wall twice before so it was a lot of fun to see him again. There is never a slow moment around him, and […]
