The Latest Dispatch:
My Favorite Unexpected Moments in Africa
4/4/2021
As our time in Africa slowly winds down to a close, I find myself thinking about all the incredible experiences we've had here. Some of these times include coming face to face with lions, elephants, rhinos, or delving into the food, cultures, and languages that make up this vast continent. But those are the expected treasures of Africa, the ones you see in brochures, or on instagram, and online travel articles. Today I'm going to talk about my favorite experiences that came as unexpected surprises, things that I never expected or even dreamed of happening. Click here for more. |

Experience the Journey With Us
Marisa and I are not fancy people. We travel on a motorcycle to fully immerse ourselves in this world - mud, grit, and all. We don't have all the latest Gore Tex gear, nor are we contracted through corporate sponsorships. Everything we've accomplished has been with our own money after years of saving, or from private donations. But these days we keep the trip going through book sales.
If you're interested in our journey and want to laugh, fret, and get inspired along with us, take a look at my two books in the series about our trip. Not only will you most likely enjoy them, but you'll be supporting the continuation of our adventures.
✮✮✮✮✮ - This is a well written story about a couple starting their life and adventures together. Will certainly awake the adventurist dreamer in yourself.
✮✮✮✮✮ - This is a fun book that tells it like it is; the highs and low of long distance 2 up motorcycling. Maiden Voyage beckons the reader to pack up their bike, leave the interstates, and hit the two-lanes. Maiden Voyage |
✮✮✮✮✮ - Great book! Written from a real rider. This was the type of book I was looking for...
✮✮✮✮✮ - If anyone is on the fence to read this, take a stab. ✮✮✮✮✮ - Tim's writing style is really wonderful. He'll bring a tear to your eye quickly even from happiness and he made me laugh out loud numerous times! 2Up and Overloaded |
