ATLANTIC to BALTIC SEA

Here you will find all the moments that we would like to share with you. The good, the bad, the funny, the depressing, the boring, or simply the moments that you need the momentum to get your bike through it.

We opted for Europe as an easy starter as yet we don’t need to hassle with Visas, Carnets or any other obstacle that a boarder crossing can throw at you. Like this we could purely find out whether we like travelling as an overlander and already test / adapt our gear.

Grab a beer and a package of crisps to get the campfire atmosphere, and then sit back and enjoy our blog across Europe!

East side of POLAND

East side of POLAND | It is TET-time :-D - This morning I got up a bit earlier as 260km to get to our meeting point in Zamosc. It was either road work or one village after the other... sometimes I didn’t even know anymore what speed I was supposed to drive. Just 20mins before the meeting point I got stopped by the Police!…
