Adventure is in my blood. And I had been considering
how I was going to celebrate my high school graduation. I didn’t just want a
small in the backyard. I started thinking about doing
a solo somewhere out of the ordinary. I took out and

the northernmost point in Norway to the southernmost section of Sweden. When I my

would be, nothing could stop my advance towards the destination. As you know,
adventure is in my blood.
