ABOUT
Depart from Stelvio Pass and return only after finishing an around the world journey.
I like to get lost. I don’t have a GPS. I only have a compass in my keychain. If I don’t know what to do, I flip a coin. I definitely don’t choose the easiest way. At the beginning I did use some maps, then I decided to ditch them, I print google maps pages, ask questions, make notes. In the cities everything is a bit more crazy, but asking is my best resource and it is also very fun. For now I have gotten the wrong way many times, I made many friends and I am still alive. As a more mature and experienced biker than me said: “We shouldn’t travel to be seen, we should travel to disappear.” I like not to know where I am. Not being able to communicate with someone for days, helps forget what we think we are and helps find our true selves. I like the silence.
This is not the longest trip, the most organized one, or most anything else for that matter. Stelvio2stelvio is not a race nor a parade with a motorcycle across famous roads or places. It is a journey. An adventure, that day by day, without demands and within the limits of my possibilities, I try to make happen.
