Help from heaven – those girls found me fuel for a stove in Iceland! The best thing is that I know neither Jana nor Luba! Even more I appreciate their help. Thanks, girls!

I lost almost all day last year running around Reykjavik looking for a store which would sell such an ordinary item. I was quite surprised but they did not have it anywhere. Of course, it was the vital thing for me. Without fuel I cannot melt snow into water and then I have nothing to drink and also nothing to eat. All the food supplies I take with me to Iceland is special expedition dry food and water is necessary for its preparation. Thanks to Jana and above all Luba, who is studying in Iceland at the moment, I won’t have to run around the city this time. What is perhaps more important, I’m spared of the stress that I will not be able to come by the fuel. There’s been 10 l of gas waiting for me in one store since yesterday!

This expedition is not about setting a record or about being first in something. It is much more important for me to give an example that inside, we have strength and abilities to reach our goals. I would like to show that with our own will, our goals can be achieved, even though it may seem almost impossible at the beginning.
