Maps in the bathroom
Here is a bit of a translated article from Arbetarbladet about Grant Bluett.
On the inside of the bathroom door in his apartment, Grant Bluett has taped up an old map. Every day he looks at new details in the area where the sprint world champs will take place this summer. Every day he earns a meter or two and becomes Australia's first orienteering world champion.
I guess the map Bluett has on his bathroom door is Rocklunda.
Bluett spent a lot of time in Sweden. He first moved to Sweden in 1997 and worked taking care of Jorgen Martensson's kids. He's now working as an orienteering trainer at the orienteering school in Sandviken.
