Arriving in Poland - Finish line

Motorbike Transportation 

After what I described in last post. From South America I went to Glasgow and being kind of practical get some paid job before my motorbike will arrive in Poland. This wasn't hard. Hardest part was to recover from my Anit-Love Marije.  All heart braking moments are hard But this was like long lasting tsunami - and I know now this will get better over the time. 

So I got message that motorbike arrived in Poland.  It was around 4 month after I got it back to shipping company in Valparaiso - I believe it departure around march so this was quick. 

So arranged my self to come and pick it up and rode to Olsztyn  - my home town. 

Zebra my brave motorbike, was in poor as usual at this stage of the travel condition. I managed to start her somehow and to travel to my auntie - Alicja live. Zebra has died. Not the first but maybe the last  time of my Great Round The World Tour. The seals around carburettor gone so I had to temporary repair it with silicone 

The finish line Olsztyn 17 May 2017 

At 46.443 Km I have arrived at lake Ukiel in Olsztyn where all my closest friend and family have gathered. 

My unsupported Travel Around The World got to its End - I Have Circumnavigate the Globe

It took me 2 years preparation and 2.5 years of travel where I could full stop my Zebra - Yamaha XT 600E model 2003

4.5 years to make my biggest dream to come through.

I rode through 4 continents - Europe, West Africa, Russian part of Asia and part of South America 

27 countries were explored 

1 bad crash of me and motorbike - Kedougou Senegal - I had to be taken back to Europe for 

3 times engine dies badly - this include in Mauritania/Russia/Nederland  apart that Zebra - Motorbike broke many times roughly once/twice a week with minor repairs 

20.000 GBP or 25000 Euro - Travel cost around - all form my savings.

Plovdiv - Bulgaria 

After Reading Book Alchemist - Paula Coelho I could translate my travel this way and i believe its most true for my self

I wrote: 

Treasure hidden underground in my childhood was so close but I had to travel around the world to find it. was in the same place where was left. Follow the path of young shepherd from the Book Alchemic I have reached rowing canal in Plovdiv (Bulgaria) - There i understood and discover my dearest treasure thast been lost when being a child. treasure was Love, Trust in your self and Self Care - it is respect your self.  I Have learned how to change normal metal in to Gold

w rok po podrozy 

Plovdive Bulgaria

Po kolejnym drugim przeczytaniu Ksiazki Alchemik zrozumialem sens zycia i sens podrozy. W swoim notesie zapisalem 

Skarb zakopany w dzecinstwie byl tak blisko, ale musialem okrazyc swiat zeby go znalezc tam gdzie zawsze byl. Podazajac za omenami i sledzac losy pastuszka z ksiazki Alchemik dotarlem do kanalu wioslarskiego w Plovdiv. Tam zrozumialem - odnalazlem skarb swoj najwiekszy ktory utracilem w dzicinstwie  - Milosc, Wiare i szacunek do siebie samego. Nauczylem sie zmieniac zwykly metal w zloto.
