Overland Travel - Etosha National Park
http://www.kapp2cape-blog.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/DSC_6111-448x298-300x199.jpg We are suffering from a bit of sensory overload after three days in Etosha. It is not easy to describe the scenery, the vegetation, the vastness of the Etosha Pan, or the animals we saw. Or the numbers of animals we saw… Etosha National Park started out in the early 1900s as a 90,000…

Overland Travel - Gone in 60 Seconds.....
http://overlandsphere.com/wp-content/uploads/5329766.jpg A good few nights wild camping and driving quite quickly we stayed one night in a rather expensive campsite in Hotel Huanchaco Gardens Hotel.

Overland Travel - Home Sweet Home
http://www.thedangerz.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/6months-worth.jpg Ahhh Portland, we have missed you. You are delightfully weird, can be incredibly cheap (unless in contrast to mexico and central america…not counting costa rica), and your aesthetic familiarity feels good. Your streets are filled with beautiful and strange and…

http://overlandsphere.com/wp-content/uploads/dsc_0663.jpg?w=300&h=200 Chugchilan, Ecuador [by Paula] We have become proficient enough at getting ourselves lost without any help from anyone, so we really don’t need someone telling us that when we’re going north we’re actually going sideways. And so it was when we crossed the equator. We pulled…

Overland Travel - Green Hills, Ancient Temples and...
http://www.welovemotogeo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/IMG_6922.jpg Our destination for the next five nights is a farm house just south of Modica.

http://oosil.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/welcome-to-russia.jpeg?w=690 The Russia border crossing was my first with one of my 8 visas arranged before departure. I was up early for breakfast and to check my paperwork so I could make the border by 10am. Immediately I was advised not to film or take pictures by the locals. 30 minutes later I was through the…

http://2livethedream.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/120502-1024x768.jpg Exactly one year ago, on May 2nd, 2012 it was the day of our departure – we were finally ready to leave. We originally had planned to leave one month earlier, but all the preparations had taken longer than expected, and the last nights before we left we hadn’t slept much. But now we…

Overland Travel - Beautiful Patagonia
http://lostworldexpedition.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/fitzroy-3-1024x325.jpg Oh, Patagonia. I can’t even come up with the words to describe your beauty. From your jagged granite peaks, flowing glaciers that reflect every color of blue imaginable, clean flowing rivers and lakes packed with trout and salmon, to your wild wind swept grasslands, with an abundance of…

Overland Travel - Zion National Park
http://overlandsphere.com/wp-content/uploads/IMG_4344-150x150.jpg We absolutely loved Zion National Park. We came in from the East Entrance and drove through until the campsites at the South Entrance. By that it had gotten a bit cloudy and we could not see all of the mountains. We decided to stay in one of the campsites in the park so that we… …
