After Berlin and Frankfurt, Pirkka, Madars and I went to London to meet Lucien Clarke to get more stuff done for “Travel Well”. We skated in the city for a few days with Lucien’s homies and Dom Marley and then drove to Bristol and Cardiff in Wales where Leo Sharp showed us around. Here is a selection of pictures and a little clip of our journey!

After the week filming in Berlin we drove down to Frankfurt for the “Bright” tradeshow. Jo and I went out to skate yesterday. We warmed up at the Frankfurter ghetto spot.
A week after the filming trip in Bilbao, Pirkka, Guillaume, Jo, Christian and I visited Michael in Berlin earlier this week.
Here are some nice analog pictures shot by Michael Mackrodt during our filming trip in Bilbao. I hope you will print them out, Michael! Tomorrow we are heading to Germany to get more stuff done for our upcoming European video. Four months to go!
