2 December 2008Iceland by Bicycle – 1999
2 September 2008I made my first trip to Iceland in the summer of 1996. I had just under 3 weeks to stay.
This web journal is about my trip in the summer of 1999. This time I had 4 full weeks. Again, as in 1996, none of my friends could make the trip so I would go it alone. This trip circles the main bulk of Iceland.
I traveled 2000 km by bicycle, covered a little distance by bus, camped every night, met some great people and once again had the time of my life.

2 September 2008Non mi considero un viaggiatore nel senso stretto del termine, ma una persona che ha avuto la fortuna e la voglia di viaggiare molto.

Ho sognato di fare quello che stavo facendo, e sogno ancora. (more…)
Pedalling to Nirvana – part 3 (Missouri-Kansas-Nebraska)
5 August 2008I pedalled my way from Key West, Florida to Tok, Alaska. What I wrote in my journal is what I was thinking and feeling at the time, it’s just a reflection of who I am, my own personal opinions, my own perceptions, and written exactly as I saw the world around me at that particular moment.
Why I did it? That is what most people ask, and you know, it is not a simple answer. One of my thoughts was to really do something with my life and truly live. Experience the world around me before I shuffle off the mortal coil.

23 July 2008In fact, it’s entirely possible I didn’t even do this trip. I may have just stayed at home last year watching re-runs of “the office” and drinking copious amounts of coffee. (more…)
