It was Saturday, 7th December 2016, the official date that 11North-55South, our South American expedition, started. The rush to get back on the road had been brewing inside us for a while. No matter how many trips we have made…
After a quick overnight in Macapa (Rochelle’s favorite type of stay, "the gas station”) we boarded the barrage to Belém where our last time sailing down the Amazon proved to be as fascinating as the first one. We never had…
Those of you that have been following our 11North55South exhibition would probably remember that we had left La Paz, the capital of Bolivia as well as the north part of the country out of our itinerary in our last visit…
During our route through South America we came across hundreds of beautiful locations. There were some of them though that we found it difficult to leave behind and Lima was certainly one of them. Unfortunately in the overlanders’ world the…
The Pan-American highway that runs on the coast of Peru has very little to offer to an overlander as far as natural beauty goes. The landscape is dry, rocky desert with long stretches of straight asphalt. So this time on…
While in our overland trip through South America we were asked by our good friend Manolis Kyriakopoulos to be interviewed for LiveTrips.gr. We came across Livetrips by accident and while we had already started the present exhibition in our attempt to…

This time our route through Ecuador had it all: jungle, Andean peaks, city life, Pacific Coast and finally the Galapagos. As mentioned in our previous post, we left uninspiring Coca behind to find the Ecuadorian jungle. After a day’s long…
Leaving Pamplona and the hospitality of Philip behind, we had aimed to cover some distance and head south as fast as possible. However traveling through the windy cliff-hugging road in Cañón de Chicomocha, between San Gill and Bucaramanga, was one…
For those of you that have been following our trip from the beginning, you know that somewhere in this sun-soaked, dramatic part of Colombia’s Caribbean coast is the most northern point of this trip. Starting from the dense jungles of…
Where were we in last month’s post? Oh, yeah, Guatapé. Well, having a great host and a beautiful homey place to stay didn’t exactly help us make the decision to leave. So we extended our stay for an extra week.…
As we mentioned in our previous post, leaving San Agustín behind, we had planned to take over the adventurous route to Caño Cristales, a river located in la Macarena in the province of Meta. Until the mid-2010s, this area was…
Crossing the Argentina-Bolivia border north of Humahuaca, as I read the night before on the internet, was meant to be a painful long process. So the next day we arrived prepared. In reality though, everything went rather smoothly and after…
Our story with TD Overland Crew starts back in our previous trip. While in “The Epic Journey” and in our attempt to cross from Iran to UAE, we met Daniel, “the crazy Czech”, from Prague. Together we watched our vehicles…
It's Sunday the 7th of May our anniversary and we have been on the road 5 months and I want a day off !! "WHAT !! I hear you say ?? They have been…

My pages have been updated and Cuba has been added. Sorry for not posting for a while but back here the rush that travelling gives you is gone. I’m trying to inspire myself to write but I haven’t been lucky…
