inkavik

A slow journey to the rhythm of water and light, an encounter with a territory and its inhabitants.

First night on high ground

First night test in the roof tent, finally.

And the verdict: it holds.

It creaks, it squeaks, a bit as if the Jimny itself is getting used to this new cap... but once installed, the comfort is there.

The space is good, the air circulates well, and so is the view. We climb, we spread out, we listen to the sounds of the night from a little higher up—a bit like being in a cabin without walls.

There are still a few small adjustments to be made (and probably one or two nuts to tighten), but overall: we're ready for the first real Icelandic nights.

Each test night brings us a little closer to departure.

And every crack is a promise.
