Traveling the world with a GS: a GlobalSmile ツ

After years of preparation I'm going to travel the world by motorcycle for a year. That would be enough time to drive all the way around, but let's start with half of it.   :D

 

The route is far from fixed, but what it boils down to is that I want to travel from the Netherlands to Australia, over 45,000 km, through 34 countries. Unfortunately, Covid continues to throw a spanner in the works, so I'm also busy with an alternative route. I have always thought that such a journey is not for me, as much as I would like to, but a lot has happened in my life that has made me often need to adjust my view of the future and that I do not want to wait until I retire go to make my dreams come true.

 

Especially in recent years, everything in my life has been dominated by this journey. The preparations helped me get through a really difficult time and the more I was involved, the more realistic the plan became. My interest became more and more an obsession, with an enormous urge to make the impossible possible. The biggest barriers to taking a trip like this have always been things like family, work, relationships, and finances. But over time, this changed drastically or became achievable challenges.

 

The more it became clear to me that the trip was feasible, the more I started to tell people about my plans in my environment, the greater the pressure became to actually do it. And all the enthusiastic reactions make me even more fanatical. In short, I can't wait. Let's go!
