Ultimate Christmas gift

Still panicking over that last Christmas present for your significant otter? Yes, the pun stays. It’s Christmas. Standards have already begun to slip.

Fortunately, salvation is at hand. My book Här finns inga drakar is still available in both print and digital form. The perfect gift for anyone with an unhealthy interest in travel, questionable decisions and places where the sensible thing would probably have been to stay home.

All the gory details can be found on the book page. And despite inflation, economic uncertainty and the general conviction that everything must eventually become more expensive, the price remains exactly the same. A small Christmas miracle.

That shameless promoter again. Someone has to do it.

The book is unfortunately only available in Swedish. For Swedish speakers, excellent. For everyone else, consider it an unusually elaborate language-learning exercise. Nothing builds vocabulary quite like stubborn determination and several hundred pages of travel stories.

So buy a copy. Give it to someone you love. Give it to someone you merely tolerate. Buy one for yourself and wrap it anyway. Nobody needs to know.

And with 2019 wheezing toward the finish line, Mink Machine will stumble onward into another decade. Older, possibly wiser, but probably still making the same questionable travel decisions. See you on the other side.

Happy Holidays!
