Hi everyone!!

This summer I will try to get to Mongolia by bike, on my own. I started planning this trip months ago and I created a blog about the project. I have been waiting to have some content published (I did not want to launch an empty blog) and for the trip to be more or less definitive (there was a lot of preparation to do) before telling everybody.

So far, everything is going quite well and the departure date still stands: the 25th of June. I am writing to you to tell you a couple of things:

Firstly, I have created the blog to share this project with you all, and I would be very pleased if you followed it and it could be of help/inspiration to other travellers.

On the lower right corner of the blog there is a tab marked “follow”, you can type your email address there and you will receive updates.


Secondly, I would like to ask you a very big favour. This will be a long and I imagine complicated trip, so any help I can get, however small, will be welcome. At the bottom of this message there is a list of all the countries and cities that I will go through. Most are definite destinations, but some others will depend on time, setbacks, etc. If you know anyone in any of those places (city or country), please let them know that I will be passing their way. A telephone number I can call in case of trouble, someone who speaks the local language, a garden where I can set up my tent, a couch to sleep on for a night, a garage where I can work on the bike... all this is priceless once I’m on the road.

Forward this message and the links to your friends and anyone you think would be interested in this story.

I will try to keep the blog as up to date as possible. I hope you enjoy it!

Many, many thanks to all of you!
