Jeg har snakket om judo for fred, judo for jenter og gatebarn i Afghanistan og mer i podkasten JudoMania: https://judomania.no/ep-74-intervju-birgit-ryningen-judo-for-fred/

Takk til Arne Midtlund for en hyggelig prat

I denne episoden snakker jeg med Birgit Ryningen. Hun har vært på “Judo for fred” helt siden oppstarten. Arne: I dag skal vi snakke med deg, Birgit Ryningen, for du er en av ildsjelene bak prosjektet Judo for fred, som startet for litt over 20 år siden. Det begynner jo å bli en stund, men f....

'Vi hadde en drøm om å pakke kajakkene våre og begynne å padle uten annet mål og mening enn å padle for padlingens skyld. Sommeren 2011 satte vi av ni uker

Happy New Year, everybody!!! It's been a while since we've posted here, but we're still around. We're back to work, back to normal, back to A4... Many people ask us how it is to be back after two years of biking; well, it's ok, we guess. Get up early every day and off to work - that's actually no problem at all. Just staying put, however, is kind of challenging for restless souls... Anyway, using time with friends and family is great! Here are a few photos from our Christmas holiday in the north. - and, yes, we do have new plans (not so big, though). The summer of 2015 we'll go kayaking in Norway, from Trondheim and as far north as the time will allow us. Happy 2015, everyone! We hope you had a great 2014 and that you have some great plans for 2015 😄😄😄

Vi er hjemme, og vi har vært hjemme en stund. Vi har flyttet inn i huset vårt igjen og vi har møtt både familie og venner. Hvordan føles det, spør mange. Jeg har tenkt å prøve å svare på det, men først skal jeg gi dere noen glimt fra den lange hjemturen vår. Vi hadde jo så viselig lagt opp til både noen dager i New York og 10 dager på Island sammen med alle fire foreldrene våre. Den lange veien hjem gjorde at overgangen fra å sykle hver dag til å bo i samme hus hver dag ble litt mindre brutal.

We're home!

- or at least almost... We'll have our house back in three days time so we're camping in Birgit's sister and family's back yard. Weather is rainy, windy and 8 degrees. Good to be back to Norwegian summer :)

We decided to ship our bikes with FedEx since we'll have quite a few flights with stopovers and a 10 days tour on Iceland before we're home. Yesterday we packed them and gave them to FedEx, today we feel naked and lonely....

Have you ever wondered what we had in our panniers? This is what we found when we started emptying them. A lot of it haven't been useful since the Altiplano, but, hey, you never know when the temperature drops below zero... We also discovered no less than 6 books, of which two were hard backs, 5 diaries and 1 Norwegian cartoon ( Pondus). Actually, Central America has been mainly flat, so we didn't care about a little extra weight, anyway ;)

We have had a detour almost across Yucatan to see some more Maya ruins and swim in a few more cenotes. We're now on our way back towards the Caribbean coast again.

We're in Mecixo! Our computer crashed again (3rd time), but without boring you with detailes of all the things that are not compatible, we'll just tell you that we intend to do the best we can concerning photos, blog and updates the last weeks of our tour. We are having nice days, flat and easy biking, swimming and good food, here in Mexico
