This winter, I'll spend two months skiing the length of the Swedish mountain chain. In this blog post, I go through my planned route, supplies, and gear for the trip.| Anders Norén
I haven’t written a lot about hiking gear here, but if this blog is supposed to be a reflection of my interests, I really should be. Ever since I got into long-distance hiking five years ago, reading up on backpacks, tents, sleep systems and camping stoves has almost become an interest in and of itself. […]| Anders Norén

I used iA Writer for the very first time on December 19, 2013. I know this because that’s the datestamp of the document that sits at the bottom of my iA Writer file list. In the years since, I’ve used the app to write almost everything, across three years of university studies, three different employments, […]| Anders Norén
Ever since me and Rebecka moved to the Swedish mountains back in 2023, my small collection of books about graphic design and web development have gathered dust in moving boxes in the garage. A couple of weeks ago, they finally got to see the light of day again after I got a new bookshelf set […] The post My favorite books on graphic design appeared first on Anders Norén.| Anders Norén
Last year, I spent a weekend building my WordPress theme Pulitzer while documenting the whole process in a thread on Twitter. Since then, Twitter has become a hellish nightmare place that I want nothing to do with, so in January this year, I deleted my account and moved over to Bluesky. The Pulitzer thread and […]| Anders Norén
On July 31 last year, I set up my autoreply, reviewed my pre-hike-checklist for the third time, took a cab to Stockholm Central Station and got on the northbound night train. My destination was Abisko, a small town in the far north of Sweden and the starting point for the King’s Trail. The King’s Trail […]| Anders Norén
This March, I spent 13 days skiing the Southern Kungsleden trail the 250 kilometers from Sälen to Fjällnäs in the Swedish mountains, with all of my gear pulled behind me in my pulk. It was my first winter ski trip longer than a few days, and a trial run for a much longer one that […]| Anders Norén
The snow has been taking its time here in the southern end of the Swedish mountain chain this winter, and in lieu of skiing and winter camping, I got around to building another free WordPress theme. It’s called Spiekermann and is designed with blogs and portfolios in mind, but like most block themes, it can […]| Anders Norén
Our original hiking plan for this August was a one-week trip to Jotunheimen national park in Norway. With the start date only days away, me and my partner Rebecka decided to heed the weather warnings and change our plans. We’ve been looking forward to visiting Jotunheimen for years, and we didn’t want to do it […]| Anders Norén
For Midsommar this year, me, my girlfriend Rebecka and four of our friends stayed at the STF Grövelsjön mountain station. One of those friends, Wilda, was there to start her Green Ribbon – the same hiking adventure I went on last summer. Rebecka and another member of the gang joined Wilda for the first section […]| Anders Norén

On August 11 this year, me and my girlfriend Rebecka walked out on a metal pier by lake Golddajávri, in the far northwestern corner of Sweden and 300 kilometers north of the Arctic circle. At the end of that pier is the bright yellow Three-Country Cairn (Treriksröset), which stands at the point where the borders […]| Anders Norén
