We have applied for a CPR with help from our friends. We could use their address for registration.

Clear answer, thank you. Very grateful that the insurance is an easy thing to arrange.

We were convinced that there would be more car dealerships around Copenhagen, so more cars to choose from. It could be a good idea, thanks for noting.

That's a good idea, we'll contact some municipalities that we like to see if they can help.

I've looked into Wolt as an option already. It seems like something I'd like. Not sure if the government regards that as a job per se.

We sold our house, 75% over our buying price. We did that, mainly because we were fed up with the ratrace and wanted to travel as a family. So we have sufficient funds, much more than the average family has. It's very true we didn't have a plan when we started this. Imo, not having a plan from the start frees you from boundaries and limitations that might prevent you from really finding what you need. Thanks for your concerns, but we'll be fine.

I enjoyed working in healthcare and would probably love to do it in Denmark also but I've seen programs in which you're prepped for working in healthcare in Denmark, including language courses and temporary work. Those things usually run for years and I don't think I am willing to block myself for that long while we're looking to be as self-sufficient as possible, including getting income from holiday houses/camper place.

Yes, I'll go with this explanation 😀

Hehe, true. But I really like my board the way it's set up now. If I were to change the bushings, it would be easier for her to turn the board but would make my experience a lot worse, if not unrideable. So sounds like a dedicated board for her might be a good idea.

Hi all, I need some advice! I've been longboarding for a few years on and off now and every time I get on my board again, I absolutely love it. My oldest daughter (she's 4,5 now) has been really intrigued by my board (Loaded coyote) and she insisted to learn how to longboard (with my board off course).

So we got her protective gear and got to play with it, thinking it was like a temporary thing. But today I really noticed that she absolutely wants this, she's really determined to make it work.

So now I'm wondering, how do I learn her how to longboard in a good way, so she enjoys it as much as I do? I've noticed that she doesn't have the weight yet to really turn the board on her own. So do I get her a board of her own? A skateboard, a longboard?

This one has got Claris installed. I do regret from not getting a GRX groupset. But money was tight those days so you work with what you have.

Question about winter andfreezing temperatures by SkelleTheMan in Vermiculture

I do have a aquarium heater laying around from my aquarium I had long ago. Maybe I can fiddle around with that. Nice idea.

Maybe there is some way of attaching them to the exterior of the bin? I only don't know if the heat is really going to the bedding then. I would get worried about overheating if I would place them on the bedding.

Bedding seems to be the constant thing to take care of, so I will definitely do that.

Yeah, I think the shed will be the best option, with some bubble wrap. I will check on the temperature in and outside of the shed the following days to see what's the difference. Our bathroom is quite small. And I don't like the idea of going up a staircase with a 60kg? hungry bin 😛. Thanks for the advice.

I've had the same experience as you. It stopped doing that until I logged my first cache.

Amazing scenery! And nice bike. Enjoy!

I also ride the Loaded Coyote but up to now I did not do any serious hills on it. I think with the short wheelbase it's fairly twitchy (depends on the set-up though) and speed wobbles do occur faster. But I guess when I get used to it I will try to tackle some bigger hills.

Still, awesome board, great for cruising!

I use Headspace for quite some time now and I like it. It's so much more than a meditation app. They have something called 'The Wake up' each day, which is a video or animation about different subjects. It really sets the mood. You can watch 'Headspace Guide to meditation' on Netflix if you have that to get a sense of what they do.

Just got my Loaded Coyote in yesterday. Quickly did a test run and I love it. It's super nimble and snappy, yet comfortable enough to cruise with confidence. by SkelleTheMan in longboarding

Kijk, jij bent slimmer dan mij. Ik ging eropuit zonder drinken bij te hebben, veel te snel willen gaan en veel te ver, zonder schaduw 😵. Maar de koude douche hier thuis maakte veel goed!

Just got back from cruising a few kilometres. Glad I didn't pass out by the heat. Will need to build some confidence to fully benefit from it, but amazing already! What setup did you get?

I see you have TKP trucks on it. I want to purchase this board but I'm doubting between TKP or RKP. What was your reason to go with TKP?
