The Return

  That was it folks! We finished our travel finally and came back home this morning safely. Well there's a lot to bark about guys. First of all i am glad that we came home in one piece both of us. I am grateful that we accomplish our mission of south east asia without having any technical and health issues. It was my first trip abroad and i loved it man! I believe Culu's quite satisfied of the journey as well. We have seen so many different landscapes, been in the most interesting places, and met so many cool people in these past 7 months. It was the greatest adventure in my life so far. Thank you all for supporting us all the time with your cool vibes from far. We enjoyed every second of it. Creating this blog, collecting footage for it and sharing them, was keeping us connected with you in a way. So therefore thanx again for being there with us. We will never forget these beautiful lands and its people. I enjoyed so much peeing on every corner of it. But the most amazing part of the trip for me was to meet all these incredible dogs on the road. Some big, some small, some smart some not, some with hair some without but wherever you go on this planet, dogs are dogs everywhere. Sometimes we don't even speak the same language and don't understand each other but we were all the same. Trying to survive in peace and in search of the joy of life. Some were close some not but they were all amazing souls on their own path. Stay in the flow guys!
  Also a very special thanx for our coolest friends Gizmo, Ali Yorgo and Dirty Cheap Creative for their huge support to this trip. It would never come true without them.

The Day We Climb To Wat Phratat in Doi Suthep

 We haven't been uploading any post lately since Gizmo left Thailand. Here is the day we climb 17 km together with Gizmo and Culu to the steep hills of Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai where the Wat Phratat Temple is located. There was a emerald buddha inside the temple which is quite famous and thousands of people come here to pray or just visit it everyday. We climb up there about 5 hours which usually is around 1 and a half in Culu's pace. We were proud of her by accomplish it by her strong will. It wasn't an easy task for any bike rider. She was in pain from the beginning and stopping every 20 meters to rest but she never wanted to quit. Culu was trying to motivate her during the climb even with some white lies like "no more climb after this turn Gizmo, we're almost there" She was crying when we were coming close to the top. When we arrived to the sumit there were hundreds of stairs waiting for us to get in the temple and we only had 15 minutes left before the temple shuts its doors to the visitors for the day. We quickly check it out and went back down. Of course the best part was the downhill for all of us. It was getting dark and we need to be back down in half an hour for security reasons cuz Culu got no front light and it was raining as well. Anyways, it was one of the craziest thing we did with Gizmo while she was with us. Enjoy the ride!

 Crossing this beautiful forest i believe, helps them forget the toughness of the hills.
