The Art how to travel slow and explore the unknown properly as a motorcycle overlander
Jim Martin from AdventureRiderRadio though it good to chat to us about our style and way of travel. That is going slow, taking time to understand the countries we explore. And all the stupid things we have and happened to us done since we left home.
Hopefully, there’s some valuable information that can help others.
“Michnus and Elsebie Olivier started their motorcycle travel lifestyle in 2010 when they took a trip through Africa. Riding small motorcycles, called piki pikis in Swahili, they were hooked on travel and never looked back.
They have refreshing, honest and real views on motorcycle adventure travel. They discuss slow travel, sponsorship, cultures, budget, packing and more. A lot of travel tips packed into this episode, Michnus & Elsebie inspire and share their experiences with moto travellers. ”
Taking your time to travel is so much more rewarding than high-tailing it for passport stamps and quick adventures. There is so much more to see and experience when having time to go see places, people and cultures.
Our suggestion has always been to rather see a few countries properly than rush and barely touch exciting destinations.
After more than a decade of travel and short expeditions, we can confidently say going slowly is still better.
