Sleeping with animals and i got a nice present

Thursday (06.11) after the lunch with jerome i filled up my back pack with water and food and started walking around 4pm. I found the right road out of the city relatively easily and didn't got lost.
In the evening on the road i saw several times wild pigs on the fields or crossing the road behind or front of me. But now its not so scary anymore because i have a good head lamp and i can see where they are.

For the night i went to sleep in some bushes and when i had made my bed ready i heard some noises again. I was curious with who I'm going to spend the night and found out that the place was full of rats.
The part of France I've been walking has a serious rat problem since Cannes. I see them in the cities and even more on the road sides. Maybe because here is so many grape fields.
But i was tired and the bed was ready so i still went to sleep over there.

Friday i walked trough a town called Sete where one guy stopped me and ivited me to a bar.
We drank few classesof whiskey and talked about my trip. After that i walked trough a street where they were filming some sets for movie or something like that.
The evening walk was very calm because i had a nice bicycle Lane for 20 km.
And in the night when i was setting my bed up i heard some noises again and was curious again.
This time i shared the sleeping place with European otters. They were nice and friendly.

Saturday during the lunch time i took some time out and cooked my favorite pasta Carbonara. I even cooked more so could eat it for two days.

In the evening it started raining around 10 pm. But luckily i found a little cabin where i could sleep in the corner of the field just after 1 km of walking.
And there i had some neighbours again. There was a lot of baby spiders and some big spiders who i couldn't identify. They were between 2,5 - 4 cm in diameter and ranging from brown to very dark brown with some hair and lived in the cracks of the walls in a web tunnel (if you know the species i mean leave a comment with the name). And also some rats again. But it was raining and it was a dry place so i decided to stay.

Sunday morning i woke up and i was still okey. I did my last cigarette and started walking.
I needed to buy tobacco but the next town was 5 km away. When i arrived there everything was closed. So i walked another 10 km to next town and again everything was closed. So in the evening i arrived in Narbonne where i could finally buy some tobacco. Also the road was full of ugly prostitutes again.

Then i walked out of the city and went to sleep in a culvert pipe under the road because it was very windy. But this time i was there alone there.

Monday was nothing special and nothing happened. Just slept in a ditch because it was very windy again.

Tuesday it was very windy again and the wind  blew straight against me so it was very difficult to walk but in the evening i still arrived in Perpignan.

And the good thing is that this time i never walked on the wrong roads and never got lost.

When i arrived in the center i sat down in a park and just few minutes later one man saw my sign and the first thing he asked was that if i need a place to sleep.

So we went to his place with his two lovely dogs and we talked little bit and went to sleep.

Wednesday we went to the city and he showed me some places where i could try to earn some money so i did some begging.

At one moment one guy came to me and blamed me that i took his money that he had lost somewhere but i had no idea what he was talking about so he left.
About an hour later he came back with some friends and the same story continued.
Then one guy pulled his shirt little bit up and showed his gun and asked again where is the money and i was still calm with a little smile on my face. Then they noticed that in the area there are cameras and said that its on the camera and they will call the police, which was fine by me. And i think at that moment they finally realised that i don't have their money and they left me alone.

Little later the police came to me and said that its forbidden to beg in Perpignand and asked also my passport. Although different police officers passed several times before and said nothing. Also this is the first time in France when somebody asked for my passport.

But it was 5 pm already so i went back to my host place and we talked and drank some wine.

And he also made me a very nice gift.
He gave me a camera so i could take photos from my road again and post them to the blog.
So from now on the blog will be more colorful again.

Today i will probably go to the streets again and try to earn some money again and hope that the police isn't a problem. And i can stay in his place for one more night, after that some couch surfers come and my couch will be occupied.

But if the police comes again it is very likely that i will leave tomorrow and start walking towards Barcelona and hope for the best. But sleeping in Spain is probably going to be more difficult because i know that its forbidden to sleep on the streets in Spain and you can get a fine for doing that.

And this is the guy who i met little bit before Toulon and invited me to the party.

So far 2377 km.
