From Virginia to Ushuaia. Fulfilling a dream!

Updated: Jan 8, 2025

It is the 11th of January, 2023, and the chill in the air is palpable, wrapping around me like a crisp, frosty blanket. The temperature outside hovers just above freezing, starkly contrasting with the warmth of my house, where I pace impatiently in anticipation. The clock on the wall reads 11:15 AM, and I am waiting for a pair of SIDI adventure boots to arrive from Europe. They should have been here three days ago. These boots are not just any ordinary footwear; they are meant for a crucial part of my journey that will soon take me far from the familiarity of my daily routine and over terrain I have never tred. Once they arrive, I will jump on my motorcycle, an extension of the spirit and freedom I cherish dearly, and embark on a thrilling and dangerous ride to Texas. Destined for the other end of the continent, leaving Texas will mark the beginning of my Latin American journey. There, I am set to meet two strangers who share my passion for exploration and adventure, individuals who, like me, desire to experience life to its fullest. There is severe weather forecast tomorrow along my route. I should avoid it, go north of it, or south first, towards Florida, then cut west to Texas. But I don’t have time. I need to get past Tennessee as quickly as I can.
