The Deep Dive is discussing a blog post on Pilgrimage and slow travel. The original post can be found here: The Pilgrim's Keywords: 1. Slowness (slowtravel.se) - This podcast episode was created using Notebook LM

We hope you like it. It's a new way for us to put our work out there as a tiny non profit. 

A little bit of tech problems in the beginning, sorry about that!

Ruben joins me to talk about luggage, both the kind you carry with you and the stuff you have transported between lodging on your pilgrimage along S.t Olavsleden. Ruben also tell me that he gets a lot of questions about animals along the trail but we decide you would be very lucky if you see a bear or a wolf and it's the mosquitos you need to fight with if you don't have the right repellants. 

We also talk a bit about the trail and the people who provide service a long the trail and without whom, S:t Olavsleden would't exist. We lost one of them, this past Sunday, Kärstin in Lombäcksstugorna. Among her passions was S:t Olavsleden, we will miss her and do what we can to honor her in our efforts to make S.t Olavsleden a great place to find yourself and be a part of a great community. 

Naturum is the place to learn about the nature and rural life in the valley of Ljungandalen. Aline gave us a guided tour. 

Learn about the early days of the trail and about the church in Borgsjö´s initiative serving free waffles and coffee to all pilgrims with credentials. Sten Ove Danielsson tells about his involvement in the path and made the generous offer of assisting any pilgrim in need of assitance when they are in Borgsjö. Weither it is help to find new shoes or if they need to go to the pharmacy, Sten Ove is your man in Borgsjö. I give you his contact information at the end of the show.

Today I spoke with Helene Westerlind, decon at Selånger Pilgrimcenter. Enjoy!

The episod that got lost! Here it is again the live show from June, 27 that didn't get uploaded. 

I chat with 3 German Pilgrims from Berlin. It was a challenging recording with extra noise from the kitchen and our young dogs out in the yard. Enjoy!

I stopped by a couple of the places catering to Pilgrims on S:t Olavsleden in Bräcke. 

After some technical mishaps, Ruben from Nordic Pilgrim joined me for a chat. Ruben is one of the great resources along the trail. He has helped some 800 pilgrims on their journey.
