Luckily for us less well travelled folk, Pete documented the experience on his online journal Long Ride Home at Crazy Guy On A Bike.

As well as storing up countless memories in words, Pete recorded his journey with incredibly beautiful and telling photographs.

Back in the UK, Pete is sharing his amazing experiences of life on the global road by giving talks that are both inspiring and educational. To preview the presentation and book Pete to speak at your school, business or community group visit the Peter Gostelow website here.
