Невероятната история на котката, обиколила света

Когато бившият играч по ръгби Дийн Никълсън изоставя работата си като заварчик, за да обиколи света с велосипед, той едва ли е предполагал, че се впуска в приключение, което ще преобърне живота му на 180 градуса, разказва BBC News.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I protect her during the day and in return shes got my back at night ❤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Woke up with Nala climbing on top of me this morning as if she was spooked and straight away i heard something rustling outside the tent. Usually its just the odd stray dog sniffing around but when i heard the zip of my trailer open i knew we had an unwelcome visitor. I opened my tent slowly and peeked around the corner to find a man standing by my bike pointing a knife at me. Straight away i thought to myself fuck this so i jumped out the tent and started going towards him. For some reason i didnt even consider the knife he had but i was in his face wanting to see inside his bag. He handed me my tool kit and then showed me his tobacco implying thats all he had. I then punched him knocking him to the ground where you could see he got visably angrier so i went back to the tent and got my knife. He mustve been wondering what he disturbed as he started panicking walking away but i caught up with him again, knocked him down once more and my go pro, bike lights and bike pump fell out his bag. He then started running and just to scare him a wee bit more i ran after him a few hundred metres shouting at him! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Very eventful but I came away from the whole thing wishing it had went differently, looking back i think he was homeless giving the smell coming from him and he seen my bike as an opportunity. Im not saying its right what he done but some people fall into a bad way of life and its very easy to look down on them. I dont know his story but it wouldve been nice to sit down and talk to him instead of it all kicking off 🌼 • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #begbie

По време на пътуването си 31-годишният шотландец среща Нала – изоставено край пътя в Босна коте, което решава да осинови.

Така рижавата котка става не само негов спътник, но и основен герой в най-новата му книга - „Светът на Нала”, излязла на пазара само преди дни.

Любопитен факт е, че Дийн и Нала преминават през България по време на околосветското си пътешествие.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Nalas first day playing in the snow ⛄⛄⛄ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Absolutely loved today, we went exploring with @abandond_bulgaria checking out all the old and deserted buildings around Sofia! We ventured into an old Olympic swimming pool, abandoned school, train stations and loads more derelict buildings! Nala was off in her own wee world doing her own exploring but would always run back when shouted on 🥰 Check out his page as he has some really cool pictures of all the buildings you can explore and if you like this sort of thing as a day out, I'd definitely recommend it ❤❤❤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #snow #cold #wasntreallycold #putontheshorts #suncream #sunburn #heatstroke #sofia #abandoned #derelict #bulgaria

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Was a good day cycling given the conditions, managed 30 miles with a constant head wind which I think I'm going to need to get used to cycling north. I stopped occasionally to check Nalas temperature and with her jumper on and her basket lined with a jacket that protects her to -25°c she was as snug as they come so no need to panic people! But I need to be honest, I found it a bit chilly today so I put on a 2nd pair of shorts 🥶 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's to be a cold one tonight, falling to -12°c but we are wrapped up with Nala inside the sleeping bag snuggling each other. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #winter #wintercamping #snow #cold #vango #vangotents #bulgaria

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bikes fixed and Nala got her yearly injections ❤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Although she done very well getting the jags after the vets I brought her back to the hostel to let her relax as we all know how much she hates that place! • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #veterinarian #rabiesjab #rabies #protected #coronavirus #unprotected #deed #cattunnel

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Usually during the night I love turning my pillow over to get the fresh cold side but that got a whole new meaning this morning when I flipped it over to suddenly find my cheek pressed against ice. Once we finally got the courage to get out the sleeping bag and pack everything away we had a 15 minute cycle into Sofia and had a quick once around the city before heading to the hostel mostel where we will spend a few nights to give us a chance to explore and get the bike fixed 🛠 • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #youtube #youtubesundays #newvideo #sofia #bulgaria #cathedral

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Peekaboo 🙈 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tough day back on the bike today! Although we got of to a nice early start our route was full of hills and my gears on the bike decided to play up and leave me stuck on high. This mixed with a strong headwind, my legs feel like jelly tonight and I'm not sure if I'll be able to walk tomorrow 😭 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Highlight of the day though was when I sat down at a wee river for a rest and seen my first ever kingfisher ❤❤❤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #cat #peekaboo #nala #biketravel #bulgaria #tired #deed #wasprobablyapigeon

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Came out to play with the drone today and also let Nala do a bit exploring. We climbed the hill along from the house and found the ancient ruins at the top called Nebet tepe. which is where the town Plovdiv was founded on and the earliest settlements are dated waaay back to 4000BC. It was the perfect playground for Nala as she was exploring inbetween all the ruins! • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #plovdiv #plovdiv2020 #ruins #nalahistorychannelstartingsoon #deanjustwantedtoflydrone #graffit #newyoutubevideo
