South America Early 2018
Hi all,
I'm planning my first ever motorcycle trip around South America and would love to meet up/ride with fellow adventurers along the way.
My trip will start with learning Spanish for 4 weeks in Medellin before flying down to Rio for the Carnival! I have Brazilian friends and they say this is a MUST!!
After that plans are pretty open... currently toying with idea of buying a nice light Honda 125 out there or taking one from UK (quotes are coming in a bit steep though at £1,000+).
Once I have a bike the idea is to make my way down to Ushuaia (maybe through Argentina), then back up through Chile (hop over to Easter Island), Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador (inc. Galapagos), Columbia... then who knows where! Would be looking to keep costs low, camping or staying at hostels most of the way, going at a fairly relaxed pace, enjoying nature and trekking at points eg. Torres del Paine, Machu Picchu.
I'm open to any ideas/tips/advice for my travels and would be happy to share the adventure with anyone who might be out there at the same time (Jan 2018 - April/May 2018).
Looking forward to the road ahead,
Mel
