Overlanding Guatemala: turquoise lakes, volcanoes in the clouds and the mystical Maya world
At the end of our trip in Nicaragua, it was time to move on to our next destination. After we heard too many stories about safety issues in Honduras, we decided to cross that country in one day. Our only encounter was with corrupt young cops who held us ‘hostage’ for an hour before letting […]
Overlanding Nicaragua: burning lava, cool lagunes and colorful towns
I do believe it’s time for another adventure. What did we like in Nicaragua? With 28 volcanoes, Nicaragua takes you back to a Jurassic Park look and vibe. You can’t open your eyes without seeing one in the background. And that’s an extraordinary feeling! Volcanoes who destroyed towns, sleeping ones, with or without lava and […]
Overlanding Costa Rica: wild beaches, river crossings and coconut forests
All I need is a coconut tree and a cold breeze. What did we like in Costa Rica? Nature! Not only is there lots of tropical rainforests and cloudforests in Costa Rica, it also inhabits a lot of wildlife that you can spot just walking around or from the camp site! We saw monkeys, squirrels, […]
On our way to Central America: crossing the Darién Gap
Island days Island ways Snorkeling, sand & sunny rays In half a year, we overlanded 7 countries in South America. Before starting new adventures in Central America, we had to cross the Darién Gap, a small break of 100 km in the Pan-American between Colombia and Panama. Filled with dense jungle, dangerous animals and […]
Overlanding Colombia: vitamin sea and wild simplicity
Don’t Go There. It’s Not Safe. You’ll Die. We Went. We Explored. We Loved. What did we like in Colombia? After 6 months of overlanding mystic mountains, winding roads and windy altitude, we were more than ready to indulge in some vitamin sea! Spending some family quality time with Christophe and Olivier, Dimitri’s brothers. Sharing […]
Overlanding Ecuador: the land of volcanoes, tropical vibes and jungle fever
Almost 6 months ago, we started our Global Honeymoon. As time goes by, we don’t even know what day of the week it is… But we do know it’s time for our blog update about exciting Ecuador! And oh boy, it was exciting! What did we like in Ecuador? We encountered so much diversity in […]
Meet Suzy, our 1992 Toyota Land Cruiser HDJ80 overlanding hero
We bought Suzy from a Frenchman in February 2016, and prepped her for our overlanding adventure that’d start in November 2017. The first time Sarah and I actually got to drive it together, was to arrive at our wedding ceremony 😀 But before getting there, our Suzy needed some specific modifications for overlanding the America’s. […]
Overlanding Peru: magical mountains and crooked cops
“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise above the clouds.” And that pretty much sums up what we did in passionate Peru: climbing mountains 🙂 Oh, and dealing with crooked cops 😉
