Vicente and Fernanda – Around the world by motorcycle
It all began as something of a crazy idea, a world tour by motorcycle, but the dream became a reality.
Over these three years, we’ve travelled more than 100,000 kilometres, including the trip to North Cape. After having visited 51 countries, we still have the same enthusiasm and passion as we did on day one.
Even we don’t know what the future will bring, we’re sure there will be more positives than negatives… But let’s start at the beginning and go back to 2017.
