EV10: Day 55: Kalmar to Jämjö

We rode from Kalmar to Jämjö yesterday, ca. 95 km. We really liked the city of Kalmar, one of the oldest Swedish cities. Did a little bit of sightseeing, and found a bike shop that would take a look at Dani’s bike — though they also couldn’t figure out where the weird sound was coming from.

We have left the hilly Småland and are now in an area with wide plains — leaving us exposed to the strong headwind.

One funny thing: we met Doro on our route by accident — a lady bikepacking from Munich. I had already met her a month ago between Turku and Helsinki, but she was going the other direction then. Funny how small the world is sometimes.

We made it to a shelter rather early yesterday, which was a good thing, as shortly after we set up camp the rain started, and it got stronger throughout the night.
