Even though I had a drysuit, lifejacket and emergency transmitter I was looking for the challenge in the physical and mental struggle and not in precarious situations. I consider this preventative approach to be an important aspect of a microadventure. Whether at home in front of your own house or on the way to the North Cape, it is the struggle with oneself which comes to the fore. I paddled not only towards my personal goal but also deeper and deeper into myself. A world which is my life and which can create and form myself. Life means to be free. It is one of my most precious goods. But freedom is like air. We only notice how much it’s worth when it’s not there anymore. I think this Norwegian wisdom reflects the urge of many people.
