Left Sweden

Well last friday it was time to leave Sweden (for now, I will go back to Gothenburg to visit my new friends there for sure!). At 16:00 I got on the ferry to Denmark. A one way ticket was 225 kroner but a back and forth one was 29.. So I took that one and on the boat started asking people for a ride. I found someone who was willing to take me to a gasstation close to Kolding. From Kolding I was well on my way to Germany and only about 1300km away from Prien am Chiemsee. On the boat there was taxfree alcohol, which meant a lot of people were completely smashed. I managed to sell a lighter to a drunk danish guy for 200 (about 25 euros) and that bought me dinner, a drink or 2 and left me with some spare money for the ride. When we arrived at the gasstation it was 22:00. The highway was deserted, and those who did stop for gas were not planning on taking a hitchhiker at night. I decided to put my tent behind the gasstation in the forest. Sadly a strong wind in combination with complete darkness weren't the best conditions to put up a tent on your own and I almost lost my tent again... I went inside the gasstation and asked the guy who was working nightshift if I could crash on the floor. He opened a small room where I could sleep till the next shift started, which was at 05:00 AM. He was also nice enough to give me a few beers so the floor would become more comfortable. After 4 hours of sleep he woke me up and I was on my way again. The day started slow and the rides I got weren't more then 50km. I thought it would take me atleast 2-3 days to get to Prien in the south of Germany if it would continue to go like this. Then my luck changed and a guy took me over 600km to the border of Bayern. In Bayern he dropped me off at the first train station. Here I bought a Bayernticket for 22 euro's. This ticket allows you to travel by train through the whole province for one day. After 3 connections and 4 hours I was finally in Prien. I made it in one day. It took 20 hours and 1300km but I guess this is my new personal record. Right now I'm typing this while sitting in the sun on the balcony. The 15th of may we will go back to the Netherlands. The day before that Doris has a concert here in Prien. Go check out her youtube channel to see her music! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2G7nxZm_f8 In The Netherlands we will visit friends and hang out for a week or 2 before traveling again together. Also I will try to sell some old junk in order to have more pocket money on the road! See you soon!
