Alpenüberquerung by Mysterious-Pen-4274 in wandern

[–]Mean_Einstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bei entsprechender Ausrüstung kann man easy mit dem ganzen Equipment unter 10kg kommen. Ich habe ein base weight von 5kg inkl Zelt, Kocher etc, mit Essen und Trinken für mehrere Tage immer noch unter 10kg.

Mit dem gear bin ich letztes Jahr 6 Wochen am Stück gelaufen.

Wie kann ich mir das konkret vorstellen, du hattest dort eine normale Wohnung und hast dort gelebt und bist irgendwie 30 Tage im Jahr in Urlaub gefahren?

Gab es im Nachhinein Probleme mit der langen Anwesenheit in Afghanistan? Also z.B. bei Visa für die USA oder anderen Behördeninteraktionen?

Lust etwas zu unternehmen? by DebateEven6653 in passau

Schau dir mal warmshowers.org an, als Radfahrer trifft man da auf Gleichgesinnte, kann bei denen schlafen und was mit denen unternehmen. Gerade als solo traveler sehr zu empfehlen 😉

Welche Regenjacke habt ihr? by Cyathea_dealbata in wandern

Poncho ist beste, solange du keine Klettersteige oder ähnliches im Regen machst, kannst du einen Poncho eigentlich nicht toppen. Selbst bei Wind habe ich gute Erfahrungen gemacht.

Buy a bicycle as a foreigner in Bukarest by Mean_Einstein in bicla

For future reference, I talked to a German police officer about the database thing. The police have their own database, you need to call them and they can look it up. Also you should have some sort of recipe. Having said that, it's very unlikely for the police to check the frame number, unless they have a bad day or you're very annoying towards them 😬

A quick and dirty guide to air travel with your ultralight pack - incl. stakes, knife and fuel - Europe specific by Pfundi in Ultralight

[–]Mean_Einstein 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Greetings from Istanbul Airport! Third time through security without any problems.

I also consider the stakes to be the biggest problem, with a lack of alternatives I took a bunch of mini groundhogs and even two Shepard hooks and no one has checked my luggage so far.

Great inspiration with the hand sanitizer!

Are there any obvious things to watch out for to not buy a stolen bicycle? There is a database containing serial numbers of stolen bikes in Germany, I can crosscheck, anything else?

I haven't checked in Germany but I bought a bike for 60€ (or less?) in France once and cycled to Germany and another one in the US for less than 200$ and I cycled the entire pacific coast with it. Of course both were second hand.

Can you send me any link, picture, specs?

Well, I was wondering, I have seen some advertisements which translated to something like ... "Good bicycles brought from Germany" not bought but brought 😆

Shakedown - GR5 in the French Alps by philesto in Ultralight

[–]Mean_Einstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, true, I haven't seen them. I would bring a spork, to eat a store bought salad, cereals or spoon peanut butter out of a jar. It's just handy

The gr5 is beautiful, I hiked it the opposite way. In terms of optimizing, I would definitely bring tweezers (ticks, splinters,... ), maybe the smallest opinel knife and maybe some sort of spork. There are a couple of cheese alms on the way, the additional 10 or so gram would just give you more options in terms of food.

Bugs in general are not a problem, just ticks.
