Days 508 – 513: Brazil to Uruguay and going coastal

The border crossing from Brazil to Uruguay was reasonably fast, but we did lose more time than needed because we accidentally entered Uruguay before exiting Brazil so we had to go back before proceeding. Not that we have any plans to return to Brazil in the near future, but we did get a visa for […]

Days 495 – 507: Argentina to Brazil and finding Christmastown

On Friday, November 30, we crossed the border into Brazil. This was one of the longer crossings we have had in South America as the Brazilian side was a bit less organized than we would have liked, but we were in and sipping on caipirinhas before we knew it. Details on the process are on […]

Days 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima

Riding into Lima was, quite possibly, our most stressful arrival upon a city on this trip so far. I have ranted about Peruvian drivers being certifiably insane and Lima, being the capital city, seems to be a cesspool of the worst drivers imaginable. Not only did it seem like everyone on the road was trying […]

Days 381 – 392: A lake, two cities, and a border town

Upon hearing about the beautiful colonial city of Cuenca, we knew that this was one place we needed to visit before leaving Ecuador so, after spending a great week in Quito, we headed south. Since the road to Cuenca is an 8-hour ride, we split the journey into two trips with a stop in the […]

Days 339 – 366: Art, unforeseen delays, and celebrating a year on the road in Medellín

Our initially planned two-week stay in Medellín got extended by an additional two weeks because of some bike repairs that needed to be to be taken care of before they became hazardous. One of these repairs was to the clutch which required a part to be shipped in from the USA. The part was stuck in […]

Days 327 – 330: Beautiful and blistering Cartagena

On Friday, we headed towards Cartagena, taking the road going through Barranquilla. Shakira fans who don’t know where she’s from, Barranquilla is the singer’s hometown and there is a statue of her there. The traffic in the city was chaotic and getting out of there was an absolute nightmare so no selfies of us with […]

New Video: Central America II

We have a new video up on our YouTube channel of our time travelling through the Central American countries of Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. Enjoy, subscribe, and share! 🙂

Days 301 – 309: Good food and mountain tops in Bogotá

The rest of our week was pretty low-key. We spent most of our second Wednesday in Bogotá searching in vain for a place that would insure our bike. This proved to be a surprisingly more difficult feat than expected, especially considering that vehicle insurance is mandatory in Colombia. Luckily, on Thursday morning, we were finally able […]
