Madagascar, a name that evokes adventures and exotic places, scents of spices, atmospheres and environments different from the familiar ones. What idea do we Europeans have today of this island in the Indian Ocean, the scene of an extraordinary evolution defined by the French botanist and naturalist Philibert Commerson as the “promised land of Naturalists”?…

Porto Katsiki, Kefalonia Whatever was region or island, I have never heard a biker who didn’t enthusiastically talk about his travels in Greece. In a few words, visiting Greece by motorbike is very easy and pleasant. Country roads can climb up mountains or follow trails overlooking the sea, drawing an infinite number of curves through…

My last motorcycle trip through Myanmar dated February 2020, short before the pandemic hit the world. Once again, I used a Royal Enfield Himalayan (probably the best item you can rent in south-eastern Asia). Started in Mandalay, then reached Bagan valey, Inle Lake through Mount Popa and Kalaw. Then headed towards Yangon and the south…

I’ve always held on to a deep curiosity towards Iceland. A mysterious place that never looks too far but always relegated to the upper corner of our maps. An island of volcanoes and ice that seems to come straight from a tale or a fantasy novel, a country that incredibly seems to be ignored by…

When you think about Nepal, you will probably imagine a remote country perched somewhere on the Himalayan mountains. When I first thought of Nepal as a possible destination for a trip I knew nothing of it, as usual. It was just a small country somewhere north of India, a country with the highest mountains and…

An amazing day journey When you think about Patagonia it’s hard to focus on the whole region. Some people tend to identify the whole thing with Ushuaia or the parks in the very south. When I finally left Coyhaique and was heading down to the big, unknown General Carrera lake I was thinking I was…
