Hello Hello, Here, my journey is over and I am already back in the Alsatian region. I can now summarize my New Zealand Cyber Adventures and unveil the beautiful wild landscapes of the South Island. Preparation and first kilometers I arrive in Christchurch after a jump in time through the various transits. It's simple, I fly on Saturday in San Jose, I arrive Tuesday morning in New Zealand (the date change line helping). I leave myself 2 days of rest,…
"Once is not custom, nor two… Besides, we never knew how many times it was custom "… Here is the only article on Costa Rica. My parents joined me to visit this small country of Central America, I have very little pedaled on my mount. The adventure was done quietly in a 4×4.

Given my enormous delay between my present adventures and my narrative on this blog, I decided to make a short summary of my visit to Chile so as not to accumulate it.

Several hundred kilometers of not very exciting roads allow me to arrive in Sabbaya, a small village close to the Salar de Coipasa. Reunion in Salty environment I'm starting to roll, ready to cross the Salar de Coipasa. There are tracks everywhere that go in every way possible. I choose one that traces…
This is finally the sequel to South America: Bolivia. After the border Always with Mary and Alex, we pass the geographical border then after the passage of a pass down to the small village of Puerto Acosta. We can have lunch for just over a euro directly in the kitchen of the restaurant, it is rather atypical. We move to the border and customs post for entry formalities in the country. The other two pairs of French tourists join us,…
Now it's time to make a little recap of my visit to Peru. Recap Peru Kilometers travelled By bike: 540 By bus: ~ 1900 By taxi: ~ 250 Peru has been a great experience very rich in discoveries for me.

I thank Gonzalez who joined…
