My Photo

Hi! My name is Juan Carlos Florez, and this is a blog covering a trip by bicyle from San Antonio, TX, USA to Puerto Maldonado, Madre de Dios, Peru. I am a practitioner of harmless living. I've been a carpenter-home builder for the past 15 years, I also have a degree in holistic health counseling, and am on this journey to continue my learning with an amazonian native healer I met not long ago. This trip, besides being the "greenest" way to travel, is also an initiation, and a pilgrimage. Hope you enjoy my journey!!!

IN VERACRUZ, VER., MEXICO NOW

Ok i posted a bunch of pics of my past days riding here, rested all day today, tomorrow leaving towards Tapachula, then crossing the border into Guatemala, i havent figured how long its going to take me but im guessing about a week and a half.  Its been challenging at times, bit more hilly than i expected so it took me a day  or two more than i thought, but i'm learning a ton about myself and the world, and really can't justify complaining about anything. People have been friendly, and warm.  The weather, hot, like i like it, and no rain so far, im eating fresh wonderful fruit, im outdoors almost all the time, and pushing myself hard, testing my limits, but also making sure im safe and healthy.  Looking forward to what is comming and living in the now.  Good night and may goodness be our guiding light always!
