On July the 23^rd, 2023, we set off on a different expedition… During the “mad about Americas“, we shall explore the entire American continent, from Patagonia, all the way to Alaska! The composition however will differ this time round. I shall be traveling, as per usual, on my favourite motorbike, the Honda XR 250S that we named Cactakis. Angeliki Doucas though will be traveling in a van, which we reconstructed over a period of three years and turned it into a campervan. This van, Don Rufos, as we call it, will be our home for the following years. We equipped it with all the creature comforts, so we can sleep, cook, bathe, have endless energy and carry all our equipment for the activities that we wanted to include in our journey, in order to implement what we named “Action Traveling”. The activities in question are: enduro motorcycling (off-roading), kayaking in lakes and rivers, sailing (which is my profession), paragliding, horse-riding and trekking in areas that are inaccessible for all other means of transport!

Traveling around the world in one’s own vehicle is certainly fascinating. This time though, we’ll go a step beyond… This will not be your average round-the-world trip. It will be a trip of exploration by land, water and air! Don’t ask us how long this will last… We hope that it will last as long as possible and certainly longer than my previous expedition, more than three years that is!
