It's time to leave.

Finally the day has arrived. By the time this gets published, hopefully, I will be on my way out of Santiago. It’s been around 10 months since I decided I was going to do this and time flew damn fast.

Past days here in Santiago have been good, since I realized everything was set I’ve been enjoying all the small good bye meetings, asados and onces I have been into. It’s been really cool to say good bye to everybody. Going breaking bad style has also been awesome. Too many stories to write them all, but all of them were epic.

It’s time to leave though and take a look out of the city, face the unkown, suffer, laugh, be sad, be happy, everything outside the city and somewhere around south america. Best way to do it is by bike. I thank you all who are supporting this in some way and are reading the blog. I’ll let you know how things are going. I hope I see most of you on the road at some point!

In drama they say; “break yourself a leg” to wish you luck, I wonder what bicycle tourers say to each other, maybe something like “let the dogs bite you”, hahahaha.

I though about writing a list of what I’m taking, but that would be too long and boring, I’ll save time for the road stories.

Below, some pictures of what I’m taking with me.


Cheers!

    1. We'll keep in touch, maybe we meet at the guyanas, maybe... The señora was too much to carry her over the rear rack... we'll have to get her a bike so she can join on the way at some point... Cheers to the Legion Etrangere!
