the preface
This is my diary shows. He does not speak of great achievements or companies out of the ordinary. Talk about travel Bike made in Alaska in July 2008. 1340 km through the "great land." I slept in a tent and sleeping bag, I drank water from creeks, and I washed a little, in icy rivers.
Believe me, nothing exceptional. A journey that anyone could do, you just want it intensely.
I tried to write down my thoughts as they came, without filter, without elaboration.
The result is a true story, full of emotions, full of errors.
I walked miles and miles in solitude for hours to ride in silence. A sort of moving meditation. I think it's the only way to get in direct contact with wild nature. The only way to embrace the trees and talk to the animals without being taken for a ride.
Like all good stories I was hoping for a happy ending, but there has been a dream. Something will go wrong.
