This weekend I spent one night in tent in -13°C, and used the opportunity to test my Kindle under these conditions.
Since I got my Kindle in November it has been a dear companion on travels.
Its best features are what it does not have :
This shields me from the restlessness that I have with my iPhone, iPad or desktop computer for that matter. There is basically nothing else to do than reading. This is what makes paper books great - you stay focused and calm.
The question is - does it also work under such extreme conditions ?
The e-ink and battery have no problems operating in 13°C, below zero. This is of course good news, because reducing weight, and at the same time bringing several books on such trips is nice.
And the answer is YES it does.

So what am I reading ?
I am trying to muddle through "Autobiography of a Yogi" curious after learning that Steve Jobs read this book once a year. To be honest I´m not sure if I will complete it once in my lifetime.

Funny and interesting at the same time - whats not to like?
It looks really cold over there. Camping in such a cold temperature is quite life-threatening if you don't have the proper type of camping gear. You can visit this camping store. They have almost all kinds of products for outdoor activities.
