Where we're headed is all very flexible and subject to our whims (and those of visa-issuing bureaucrats). Our journey began in Cape Town in July 2017 and continued through southern and eastern Africa. We flew from Dar es Salaam, Tanzania to Casablanca, Morocco in December, pedaling north and east across Europe. Between January and May 2018, we cycled from southern Spain to Istanbul, Turkey, then (to catch central Asia in a better season), flew to Almaty, Kazakhstan. As of June 2018, we're currently heading west back towards Turkey, planning later to fly to India and pedal southeast Asia. Then, maybe onwards to Oceania, South America, and back home to the United States. The map below is updated with our rough progress every once in a while. Green lines (approximately) mark our cycling route. Grey lines signal where we took planes, trains, buses, ferries, or hitchhiked, and pink lines show where we've cycled on past trips.
