I have arrived #colombia
After 6 days of being stranded in the Darién a local cargo boat delivering goods down the Colombian coast agreed to give me and the bike a lift south.
Off the sailboat and headed for land. En route to Sapzurro, a remote village on the edge of the Darién.
South by way of the wind
At sea
About a month ago I heard of a crazy Austrian who sails backpackers around the Darién Gap. But more importantly I heard he’s always willing to throw a motorcycle on board too. The bad part was his reputation seemed to be terrible, he sunk his last boat on the same route and has another boat wrecked on a reef along the way. With no other options I said fuck it and climbed aboard.

Sunrise from a cold and windy Acatenango summit. Just hours before we were watching neighboring volcano, Fuego, erupt lava into the night sky. Thanks for the photo @franialchouron #guatemala #acatenango

A combination of feeling absolutely terrible and the best ever. Malinche summit at 14,500 ft.
