    Cueva de las Manos: A journey through gravel and history

    ByIris 4 February 20253 May 2025

    Cueva de las Manos summarised for you: A story steeped in history with a highly adventurous touch to get there, more so if you put your confidence into maps.me. Camped in Patagonia National Park, we decided this was the perfect base to visit Cueva de las Manos. Just 156 kilometer of Argentinian gravel, fuel calculations,…

    From Washboards to Wonder: Our First Steps into Argentina

    ByIris 14 January 202514 January 2025

    Where were we? Ah yes, I promised to tell you more about this brave new world, didn’t I? Or at least about the dreamy, washboardy, and unexpectedly pricey details. Argentina, here we go! Barely a few kilometers from the last border checkpoint, we parked our motorbikes to soak in the view. To our left, a…

    Paso Roballos: A Tale of Two Worlds – Chile

    ByIris 3 January 20253 January 2025

    Leaving a little part of myself forever lingering along the Carretera Austral, my wheels started turning towards Paso Roballos and into the unknown; our first border crossing of the trip. A tiny, hidden place nestled below the last Chilean mountains, marking the transition into the vast Argentinian plains. Riding out of Cochrane, it took us…

    Riding the Carretera Austral: Patagonia’s Wild Heartbeat

    ByIris 15 November 202415 November 2024

    There’s a rhythm on the Carretera Austral. Not a song, but the pulse of rugged beauty and isolation that sinks deep with every turn. We’re miles from Valparaíso where our journey started, and the road feels like it’s calling us closer to the edge. Patagonia stretches endlessly, an expanse that’s as much about braving the…

    The Carretera Austral: A dangerous beauty

    ByIris 15 November 202415 November 2024

    From far away she lures me in, urging me to follow her curves down south. Leaving Puerto Montt behind, her lush green curls cover the mountain tops. While riding across the coastline, mist dances above the waves as if to warn me about the mysteries of the South. After taking the ferry from La Arena,…

    Chiloé Island: A place cold paradise

    ByIris 18 October 202418 October 2024

    Close your eyes, listen to waves hitting the hull of the ferry, and feel the wind roaring above. Forget the rain for a moment. Try to fathom where in the world you’ve ended up: a tiny dot next to Chile, yet only three times smaller than Belgium. A final stop before the long road to…

    Facing the Elements: Our cold motorcycle journey through Chile

    ByIris 29 September 202429 September 2024

    Since arriving in Chile early September, my mind has been filled with ideas for this blog, though my hands have been too cold to write them down. Even now, sitting in a small cabin (cabaña) on Chiloé Island, heated by a wood-burning stove, warm is not what I’ve known it to be. But let’s start…

    An epic adventure across the Balkans

    ByIris 22 July 202419 August 2024

    Leaving Greece behind, a road of surprises lay ahead, with each country more beautiful than the one before. Visiting North-Macedonia felt like discovering a hidden gem. Although we spent less than two weeks there, it quickly became clear that cities buzzed with life and nature was simply magnificent. Bustling fruit and vegetable markets decorated the…
