Preparations

Planning is half the fun. For years, we worked hard, saved up money, and dreamed. During that time, we did as much weekend exploring as we could, Tim took an off-road riding class, and he also attended the Overland Expo West to get inspired by seasoned adventure motorcyclists.

Mexico

As we crossed the Mexican border at Tijuana, we were thrilled, and also a bit nervous to enter our first new country. But the vibrant cultures of Mexico did not disappoint.

Guatemala

Guatemala's jungles, volcanoes, and indigenous cultures simply blew our minds. It was here that the adventure spirit of jumping off secluded waterfalls and exploring jungle caves really got our blood pumping.
