LoginLast September, on a wet and rainy morning, I found myself in a green Swiss valley. When the snow starts to melt in the Alps in early spring, cows are taken up hill where they graze in lush meadows throughout the summer, producing abundant milk which is used to make delicious cheeses. As fall approaches, the cows are brought down to the stables in the valley for the winter. Typically, the grass around the farm in the valley is turned into hay, which the animals are fed with in winter. Whereas the summer menu says lush grass, wild herbs, flowers and whatever grows in the heights. As well as being about animals and feed, transhumance is also about knowledge and skills passed down through generations and relationships between people, animals and ecosystems. We took part in a cow parade in Switzerland near the French border. Early in the morning, cows were dressed up with small hats and lots of flowers and no, not all cows liked that idea. The air was full of the sound of small and large cowbells. Men, women and children also dressed up.

I am planning a trip to Denmark to log some challenges. While I can figure most out myself, I would like to increase the number of challenge checkers there. In this post, I will list all challenges that I find have no challenge checkers, but could have. I will also try to explain what's needed for them.
It was a trip long anticipated as it had been postponed several times due to covid. We are around 30 people on this tour which is quite a big group. Everyone has flown into London during the weekend, and Monday morning we meet up close to Tower Bridge and the great food paradise Borough Market.
