Changes 🍂 Sometimes life just doesn't turn out the way you thought it would be. So just fyi for all of you following us - from now on you'll have to follow @lukimayers for Lukas' life and adventures. I (Kim) will keep using this account, change the name and keep sharing my adventures here. But there won't be any shared adventures anymore. The website and YouTube will likely change in some way too, we just haven't decided yet. All the best guys! 👋🏼

We craved Snickers so we had to find a summit cause that's the only right way to eat a Snickers 🍫🏔️ #snickers #toppsnickers #turskidor #topptur
Stugtur till Hävlingen! ❤️ Dag 3. Detta är en tur vi gjorde i slutet på januari. Väldigt mysig, och fint att få testa utrustning och väder. #stugtur #grövelsjön #hävlingen #turskidor

2025 Last year started off with our Te Araroa hike and travel around New Zealand. Then, after half a year away from friends and family, we spent a lot of time just trying to catch up with everything and everyone. The summer was a bit hectic, and in between everything we also had to get back to work. Lukas with his own company and Kim 6 hours away in the Swedish Mountains. Since we had been apart all summer, we again spent the autumn trying to catch up. We also spent 3 weeks driving around northern Sweden, Finland and Norway in our van, visiting friends and family we hadn't seen in a while. It was a lovely time. The year again ended with us separated - Kim in the mountains in Grövelsjön and Lukas back "home". It's been an intense but amazing year! Let's hope 2026 will be just as good, if not better! 🎊✨
