The Beginning
Adventure - There are few things more exciting to me than opening a new map for the first time. It is nearly always the first step of a new adventure taking shape, when the dream of visiting a place transitions into the very first steps to actually going there. The map brings the place to life, and in modern times, programs like Google Earth REALLY bring the place to life.
Adventure can mean many things to different people, and even for the same person, their idea of adventure can evolve over time. For me, adventure is completely about the unknown, which can be a new motorcycle, a new border crossing, a new culture. That is the inspiration for Expeditions West, to explore and discover new things.
This blog will chronicle our exploration of Mexico and Central America, with the trip ending at the Darien Gap in Panama.
The adventure begins February 11th.
