Almost three days later, the keys turn the lock and silently I'm opening the door and simply fall down onto the bed with a big smile. And I can't help but think with mere wonder, slowly letting all the impressions become delightful memories as my mind gently fades away into another realm. And I feel so grateful and amazed to have been given life.. experience. Listening to the sound of no sounds, beholding the light that is not visible, whirling in perfect peace as I'm lying there stationary -- it hits me once again. I'm alive.
A 1337 miles

Equipped with a backpack, a simple water- and food-supply, some Ca$h for gas and an hammock - am ready to ride around the world, man. Here's a short outline of parts of the trip:
Am happy to say that the pictures showed here is only a tiny sample taste of the landscape and experiences you'll have if you decide to do a similar thing. Most of the battery were used to check maps and directions, totally forgetting about taking pictures, and other times while driving it just would have felt too dangerous to shoot, also knowing the pictures wouldn't present reality in a worthy way. So be warned, what's shown here is mostly for illustrative purposes only, and to refresh my memory of course! Better prepare better next time and have GoPro or something. Heheh :-D.

There's a lot more to tell, but to not start boring you I'll simply mention some of the definite highlights:
- Jumping on a busy road in more than an hundred mph.
- Driving up to a steep cordoned-off area with a tea plantation in the middle of the night
- Getting stuck in the mud, and sleeping (or trying to) in the hammock on a random location
- Racing in the highlands
Best trip -- ever. That I've been riding. Still the best is yet to come.. :-D
