Amie.is Cycling Around the World

[amie]

Hello everyone,

Wow - thank you for following my journey! I didn't read this thread until today.

My blog is quite a bit behind, so here is some real time route information:
I am in Haapsalu, Estonia and am trying to speed up my progress. I want to be in Poland the week of October 23rd. I know it will be cold and have picked up warmer clothes.

Why did I leave it so late in the year to tour the Baltic? I am not sure anymore!

Thank you to everyone who emailed me and offered me a place to stay.

Please let me know if you have any other feedback on my site or questions about my trip

Take care, dziękuję, and I hope we get to meet.

Amie

*edit* I will be going from Kaunas to Berlin this time (route tips are welcomed!) I might go through the south of Poland when the weather warms up next year.

it's warm here . .right at the moment :-)

Good! When will it begin to snow?

It seems like I am making a loop back to Amsterdam to hibernate for the winter. If I continue to travel frugally and wild camp / stay with hosts - I will be able to extend my trip and meander slowly through Europe next year on the way to Asia. (Hopefully by then I will have a better system for updating my site!)

It's been hard to move quickly because I have met such nice people and I want to see everything...

If you're prepared for the cold nights, you have plenty of time before it starts snowing, probably till late november.

That is good to know! I have a warm down sleeping bag and just picked up another down jacket and warmer leggings

@Amie, nice to see you here.

Do you have any plans for Poland, which we should know
about, while thinking about a route for you? Is there anything
beside 'from Kaunas to Berlin'? :)

Szy.

Daer Amie,
I read your blog with great pleasure and keep my fingers for your vistit in Poland.

Do not worry,Poland is sometimes cold but we are warm nation

See you soon.

[Robb]

you will be here AFTER the election .. but it still will be warm enough ;-)

Also, vodka is much cheaper than in Iceland and much easier to find, so you can warm yourself up easily ;-)

Hello from Riga!

I am coming down with a cold that I got from my very nice and very sick host in Haapsalu

@Szy - I'm not sure if I should hug the coast or go through the middle around Warsaw. I don't really have anything to add. My plans are as vague as ever!

Thanks for all the nice words. I've been looking forward to Poland for a few countries now!

I'm not sure if I should hug the coast or go through the middle around Warsaw.

Take my word for it and avoid the coast unless you want to have a heavy wind against you. Of course deeper inland you will have that same western wind blow in your face but surely not as severe as far north

Take care!

Hello from Vilnius!
I should be in Poland in just a few days. Still a bit fuzzy on my route...
