Travelling overland 2 up on a Suzuki VStrom 650 from Australia to Italy. The bike leaves Australia by air and the adventure starts in South East Asia and continues with the cherry blossom season in Japan. Then through Russia, Mongolia, pick up the old Silk Road in Central Asia, across the Caspian Sea by ferry to Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey and into Europe through Greece. 19 countries in all. Then a year in Italy.
In August 2015 Janet and Scott quit their jobs in New Zealand and set off to visit Janet's parents in Ontario, Canada, stopping in at Buenos Aires, Argentina for Spanish school and some tourism on the way. In Ontario they bought two DR-Z400s and followed the final weeks of the most epic Toronto Blue Jays season in 20 years.
On 20 October 2015 they headed south on their bikes to beat the cold and to discover the Americas.
This is a personal account of an six month solo motorcycle journey on a DR650SE named Felix through Scotland and England, South-East Europe (The Balkans), Turkey, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Western Siberia, Western Russia, and northern and central Europe. At the moment its focus is on travellers tales, encounters and situations, but I hope to broaden into more practical areas as I become more familiar with the technology and can get more time to blog. It is a first-time trip of this kind.
