Crossing germany in early spring is great but surviving in Russia in the midst of winter is a total different story. And a shelter and fire is not enough to protect you from the elements.<br />But on topic now..<br /><br />I will be bringing some needles and thread with me for quick fixes but we both now that there will come a time that my clothing would be to teared in order to fix it. Walking to the tundra bare naked equals death so one day I will have to go primitive and use animal skins and i have always liked the idea of "fully using a dead animal corpse". This goes for more then just clothing.. My knives, poncho, boots, compass, backpack.. they all will one day have to be replaced with primitive technology.<br /><br />You're right when it comes to hygeine.. as long as it isn't so bad that it can make you sick it doesn't matter if you smell bad or not. Do you know what the funny thing is? It's the exact opposite: less hygeine makes for better hunting. Many animals can smell your deoderant, your soapy skin and the washing powder in your clothes from miles away.<br /><br />Before I head out I'm going to wash all my clothing in the laundry machine with water only.. that's one of the most usefull things I learned from a hunter.<br />I was already planning to write a post on Hygiene in the outdoors.. so I'll get back on that later<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701134020506215826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4933865103528680445.post-26364934014848117472013-03-06T23:36:54.907+01:002013-03-06T23:36:54.907+01:00I was wondering eh,
How are you going to plan you...I was wondering eh,<br /><br />How are you going to plan your clothing?<br />It's not like us humans have fur to protect us from the weather. (Terrible evolution IMO, fur is so much more usefull!)<br />What if it tears etc.? Won't you at one point just be with pretty much no clothing? <br />Hygiene doesnt matter that much, noone gives a shitif your clothes smell since noone is there with you, although it does make hunting harder..<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11781038521949275088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4933865103528680445.post-7327466839671345662013-03-06T11:19:47.011+01:002013-03-06T11:19:47.011+01:00I will not give in ;)
I have come so far, learned...I will not give in ;) <br />I have come so far, learned so much.. I have put a lot of effort, energy and time in this... how should I call it.. the goal of my life.<br /><br />I could stay here and continue woking on my career of becoming a nobody, living a life that leads nowhere, that is pointless.<br /><br />I could also leave and head to being surrounded by nature.. the earth at it's best, breath the fresh air, doing something extraordinary with my life and live independent. <br /><br />The choice is easily made. I'm heading out. Sure it is getting harder but not hard enough to make me quit. It's completely normal you'll probably experience it too when it's about your time to travel :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701134020506215826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4933865103528680445.post-34823036683183897062013-03-05T16:20:00.105+01:002013-03-05T16:20:00.105+01:00No matter what, don't give in.
