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!

Poland into Germany
Rolling into my home country | This morning I was extremely slow, not even sure why?! I visited the Westerplatte adjacent to Gdansk, where WWII started, which is another historical landmark. As it was good weather and weekend, I skipped the…
North of Poland
North of Poland | Visit of Wolf’s Lair and Gdansk - This morning I took it easy as I had to allow Angelo a bit of advantage as we were planning to meet late lunch at Wolf’s Lair, about 80km away. I planned to do it off-road, as that naturally takes longer. OsmAnd took
