… one backpack! Since my polar adventure I have fallen in love with the Swedish brand Fjällräven. This backpack, made from one single thread spun from eleven plastic bottles is my latest investment.

Fjällräven is one of my favorite brands and I really think that their saying Without nature we are nothing is something we should remind ourselves of everyday. Read more about Re-Kånken here!
