Road Map & Challenges


IDEA
The main idea is to come back home without a plane.
Leaving Australia on a boat was becoming a difficult and expensive idea to realise.
We decided to save this money in order to enjoy even more the rest of the trip.

WHERE
     -We'll start in Bali the 31/01,
     -Across indonesia
     -Malaysia
     -Thailand
     -Cambodia or Laos (not decided yet)
     -Vietnam
     -China
     -Mongolia
     -Russia
     -Europe (country of entry not decided yet)

HOW
We'll jump from island to island with ferries (Indonesia and Malaysia).
Either take a train or a bus to go from place to place.
From China, we'll start to travel with the famous Trans-Siberian train.

CHALLENGES
In order to spice up the trip, we have two big challenges that we hope we'll succeed:
     -Buy horses in Mongolia and ride them in the Steppes to Siberia,
     -Buy an old Ural motorbike with sidecar in Russia and try to arrive home with it.

HOW LONG
Here is the approximate planning of our trip:

We'll try to update the blog as soon as we can.
