My nephew Travis has started his year long motorcycle trip. So many adventures he is going to have – hopefully all good! Such is the technology available to him as he can document his entire trip and upload pictures and drone footage on his WP blog. He also has a GPS tracker to see where he’s been and then of course he will be able to text and email.
This is so fascinating to me to be able to join Travis in his adventure of a lifetime. He did suggest I get a side car and come along with him. LOL!
In Travis’s own words: “I’m a 28 year old guy that decided to quit the rat race for a little while and go see a bit of the world. I’m planning on taking somewhere on the order of a year off of work to travel by motorcycle from Washington DC to Argentina”.
My rough plan is to zig zag across Mexico and all the countries of Central America on my way down to Panama. From there, I’ll ship my bike to Colombia and make my way down the west coast of South America to Chile, where I’ll cross back over towards the east coast to explore for a bit before finally ending up in Buenos Aires and shipping me and (hopefully) my bike home.
Hope you enjoy the blog, I’ll mainly be posting pictures & drone footage along the way (until my drone inevitably gets stolen), with updates on my travels as well I’m sure.
Linking to Fiesta Friday 208.
What a great year he is going to have!
I know Debbie – I can’t wait to hear about all of the adventures, the countryside, the people and so on. Heck, maybe he will throw in a little bit about the cuisines…
What fun! Safe journeys to Travis. Hugs.
I know – motorcycling through Mexico – South America – Argentina – we do hope he has a safe trip.
Nice
Thanks!
Good for him! Traveling opens eyes and mind. 🙂
This sort of trip certainly will open his eyes and mind. It’s a perfect journey for him and I am very proud that he’s taking a year off from a good job and doing something for himself 🙂
Oh my goodness, the adventure of a lifetime! And how nice that he wanted you along.
Isn’t it great Liz to see a small part of the world first-hand. Can you just see me in my black leather jacket, maybe a yellow scarf and goggles LOL We only joked about me going 🙂
I can see you that way! I think it would be absolutely awesome. What an adventure.
What a wonderful journey for Travis…and you, Judy as you follow his blog! Prayers for his safe trip! 😉💗
Thanks Mary – making this trip is one thing for my nephew but being able to document it and sharing all of the amazing things he will see and do 🙂
This sounds like lot of fun. I will look forward to all the interesting stories and pictures. I hope we get to see them on your blog as well Aunt Juju. Best wishes to Travis. Have a safe and enjoyable journey.
I still can’t believe Travis is doing this but I know this is a trip he has been wanting to make. He will have a good time and get to learn and see so much that most of us never will. He’s a smart young man and will make good decisions on his journey through South America 🙂
What an adventure it’ll be! He’s going to have so much fun! I’m sure he’ll make a lot of people envious. You should definitely come along 😄😄
He’s been wanting to do this since he graduated from Dartmouth and I am so happy for him. Just wish he had a “buddy” along on the trip 🙂
I had a lot of friends that toured around Europe before settling down. I was to “responsible” for such adventures. This young man is so smart to do this while he can.
I never did something like this on my own or with friends – too chicken! Now, I loved touring Europe and such with Gene as I always felt safe with him. Travis will have lots of good memories…
Impressive!
You can say that again! What a trip and he has friends from college/work that he will be checking in with on the way.
