Into the wild – Book Review
[Warning; does contain description of the story] Into the wild by Jon Krakauer I think most people have at least heard of, and probably seen, the movie based on the same story.

Second challenge
Petri has challenged me to write again. Once a day, every day for October. And maximum 500 word per day. Because every now and then in September I was stressing about writing a lot. 500 sounds little to me. And I believe I don’t have a word counter at the moment. But we’ll work it […]
