Great Journey 🇳🇴 Day 554
Excusez-moi: today the shitty topic. In the truest sense of the word. (Does the French "sorry" make it any better?)

We have been travelling the country since October. In addition to the warming heating and the comfort of a fridge, our rolling home also has a shower, two washbasins (one of which unfortunately finally gave up the ghost yesterday and will soon be repaired), a toilet and all the camper amenities that we really appreciate.

But where do we get the fresh water from? And where to put the used "stuff"?
So far, we have always found supply and disposal facilities. And we are once again grateful that this infrastructure exists at all.

We can fill up with water at almost all petrol stations, at least in Switzerland, Germany and the Scandinavian countries in drinking water quality. Although we have a filter with us that is supposed to turn slop into drinkable water. The filter is currently slumbering next to my rarely used sewing machine and the snow chains, which have only been used once, in the "garage", as professionals say.

We can empty our used water almost everywhere. At many petrol stations, at waste disposal stations directly on the road or even at campsites, without having to spend the night there. Our toilet can also be emptied in so many places that we are always surprised by the infrastructure.

And the crazy thing is: it's almost always free! Draining water at the petrol station or filling up with fresh water? "Yes, please, help yourselves!" Only very rarely do we have to pay a few crowns. Sometimes we fill up the tank or buy something small at the petrol station. Give and take for us as a matter of course.

We are excited about so many possibilities for us campers. And never thought about it before.

By the way, we find the supply and disposal stations via various apps, of course, how else?
