Rearing to go

Written by gus. Posted in Uncategorized

It’s not long now.

We just sent away a bunch of visa applications, the cost of which has made everything feel significantly more real.

The video is almost complete after lots of skillful editing by our own Lindmarker, we’re hoping to get it up this weekend.

This site will -hopefully- be ready for it’s.. erm.. Maiden Browsing? this coming Sunday evening.

Tonight we gather the troops, all three of us, to make sure everything is ready so we can hit the ground running when we launch the site!

 

Until you can watch our own intro for the Cookbook Adventure, enjoy this Mongol Rally promo made by stand up comic Buddy and  The Adventurists:

 

It’s a wrap!

This week we finally finished shooting for our intro/promo video!

Jesper “Snarkis” Lindmarker will be spending all day today editing it together, and hopefully we can post it tomorrow – if not, then early next week. This video will be headlining our crowdfunding page, we’ll have it on Youtube (ofcourse), not to mention right here on our site. I’m sure you can’t wait to see us tell you about The Adventure Cookbook ;)

Jesper “Fail-Lord” Lejfjord and myself are spending the week hunting for visas and nailing down our route for the adventure/journey/road trip. Not that I even for a second believe we’ll stick to any plans we foolishly attempt to make, but we do need a list of exactly which countries we might be storming through so we can bother their ambassadors for visas and cover all our bases!

 

Cookbook Adventure @ Rally Sweden

Written by gus. Posted in Uncategorized

Today two of our intrepid team head off to the distant town of Karlstad to visit Rally Sweden 2012 (http://swedishrally.com/) and to promote our adventure there!

A big thanks goes out toFöretagarna (see our “thanks” page) who helped us get there and have given us a part of their area to use.

To help us spread the message we even put together a little broschure in the style of a menu – check it out! Cookbook Adventure Menu

A few first steps

Well we’ve got a basic site up and running, but don’t expect it to last. We’re building a much bigger, prettier site with significantly more complete (and interesting) information, as well as a way to buy the book!

For now we just want a draft where we can direct all the wonderful interest we’re starting to get, and so we can start thanking those that are already supporting us :) thanks, guys!

Check out our “sponsors” and “about” pages for a little more info.
