Welcome to my trek blog!

Hectik TreK

Ok, so this is the deal. im leaving the land of fine food and wimin (italy) for Cape Town. only trick is that im going to be going back on this bicycle below. mid september to 1st october is the window period for leavin, will be travelling down the east coast of the med. to egypt, then spittle down the east coast of africa. slowly slowly until i reach cape town, 8 months to a year later, a lot wiser, poorer and smellier.

Every thousand mile journey starts with its first step... or so its said. No body told me that the first step would take 8 months to prepare! i have a gazzillion things to do. from visas to the horiffic carnet de passage, vaccinations and an xcel list of useful things i have to buy... which is not what i make money for, its for crap! so no more bowling shoes, no more designer hoodies, and no more sack, back and crack waxing sessions.

I bought a bike. Her name is Giulietta. (have to let you know that its a Yamaha TT600E, hence Giulietta, TT, tt.... i never seize to amaze myself...).

Ok thats it, just wanted to christen this new blog with some brain farts and bad spelling. stay tuned...
