South America by Motorcycle
Part 1: Waiting on Winter

Today is the first day of January 2017 and we have three months to wait. Two and a half years of planning and preparation have brought us here, to the beginning of our new lives together. The open road and fantastic cultural experiences await us as we anticipate the fading of winter and the arrival of spring and a rebirth. We are going motorcycle touring in South America.
Motorcycle travel is fantastic but it is not for everyone and is often uncomfortable. It is slow, tiring and requires frequent stops. It will challenge our skills and it will make us fall down. It is personal. It is experiential. It forces us to participate in, rather than to simply observe, the ecosystems and cultures we visit. It is worth the discomfort. Travelling by motorcycle, living with less and interacting with new and diverse people will become the focus of our lives for the next year.
Can’t wait ‘til the snow is gone!
