How much did it cost?
Posted on May 29, 2015 | 14 Comments One question that came often to me was “where do you find all that money to travel?“. Well, first, I don’t just “find it“, it’s my savings, and more relevantly […] The D707, a fashionable notion of remoteness
Posted on January 27, 2015 | 13 Comments In Namibia more than in any other country, my first thought, as soon as I get out of the tent, is to squeeze my tires. And this morning again, my […] Cycling the salt road on the Skeleton Coast
Posted on July 10, 2014 | 6 Comments Waking up in the desert is fantastic. As fantastic as it is terrible to find a wind shelter for setting up my tent. Luckily the wind went quiet during […] The desert elephants of the Brandberg
Posted on July 1, 2014 | 14 Comments I have no legs today when I wake up, despite yesterday being short (50 KM) and rather sightseeing than cycling. Maybe the Namibian tourist season is picking up, because the […] Vingerklip
Posted on June 23, 2014 | 3 Comments I have received these last days two surprising emails from people who have found my blog, illustrating the magic of the internet. First, from Eric, who grew up in Cameroon, […] A meteorite around the Waterberg
Posted on June 19, 2014 | 3 Comments I have lost maybe seven or eight kilos since the last time I weighed myself, which I think is as far back as Monrovia. I was surprised when I played […] Ovamboland, the boring road
Posted on May 26, 2014 | 5 Comments More than half of the entire Namibian population lives in Ovamboland, on just 6% of the territory. The Ovambo are by far the country’s largest ethnic group, and the term […] Beautiful Huíla and Southern Angola
Posted on May 14, 2014 | 1 Comment A mob of youngsters arresting me? That’s what’s happening for the same usual silly reason: the obsession with the control of papers of anyone in Angola. My shortcut […] Fantastic scenery around Lubango: Mucubals and Serra da Leba
Posted on May 11, 2014 | 10 Comments The mighty but tamed Serra da Chela mountain range is surrounding me in the small village of Catanda. I lost 1000 meters of elevation since Lubango and I have to […] Tundavala
Posted on May 8, 2014 | No Comments The scenery around Lubango is fantastic. I make a point to visit the Fenda da Tundavala, a well-known gorge that plunges 1000 meters down to the valley below, elected one […] Angola, where I am called Chinese all the time
Posted on May 2, 2014 | 2 Comments Once out of the main tar roads, Angola is a very pretty and quiet countryside. Luckily not spotted by anyone at my camping spot, I can enjoy a lazy morning. I […] The Abominable Cyclingman
Posted on April 27, 2014 | 3 Comments The worst conditions to apply new bandages on my ankles wounds are brought together this morning: sitting on a stone, holding my feet, I must fight with the chicken that […] Pointe-Noire and the Kouilou, an oil story
Posted on March 10, 2014 | 2 Comments The good side of being out of the bush is that it reminds me of all the pleasures of life, especially food. There is a patisserie in Pointe-Noire and the […] Stuck in Les Cases
Posted on November 7, 2012 | 7 Comments Day 004. Today was amazingly beautiful. Up to now, going through the bernese Alps was OK but far from being terrific. For the first time today, the weather is nice, […]
