Just a tease from the Blue Lagoon in Iceland…

Wish I would be there now…but I am busy working … Good rememberings of the last day of our Iceland trip! The Blue Lagoon is a pure relaxing oasis. Great for sore kayaking bodies! Actually, after being back to Germany I had to jump directly deep into my buisiness again, barely editing some pics from […]

A Sixpack in a row…

Rocket power…   (Btw., that single white "rocket" on the rack – my prototype Rockpool Underground rolling kayak will be black glitter soon…)     Last symposium in Anglesey, my van got a decent upgrade: A nice crown of a sixpack of Kari-Tek cradles on a solid Kari-Tek custom made roof rack base! The second […]

2nd internet access in Iceland

Hi! This is Freya again…   Sure, we are not looking for internet every night, as usually lighthouses on headlands don*t provide much of that luxury, but on Monday night we needed to turn into the small village of Bakkagerdi to spend obviously two or three days weather bound. It is really stormy here! Force […]

Hi, this is Freya writing…   Eventually after 9 paddling days we headed into Siglufjordur at the North coast to resupply with groceries, charging batteries and typing our first update…we were just PADDLING and out in the bushes so far! Sorry for the communication trouble at the beginning of the trip, but OUR e-mails from […]

Under the Rainbow

It’s finished!!!   One of the most beautiful Greenland paddles on earth (or water…?)   Thanks to Ron Steinwall from Novorca paddles, who created a really unique paddle for me.   It has a hand-carved-to measurements wooden core, a layer of carbon, then is painted with all colors of the rainbow, sprinkled with lots of […]

Iceland 2007

Well, people might say I’m a spontanious woman…but it is actually a bit less dramatic as Derrick wrote about it on his blog :-)) My decision to go around Iceland was born at the inspirational place of the Anglesey Sea Kayak Symposium 2007.   I was twice at that symposium, 2004 as a bloody firtst-time-novice […]
