Leaving my wife for the third time and going back home to Finland
 

Our ON/OFF relationship continued and I was on my way to Finland...

The aftermath of riding across South America with a dog on a side car
 

A short summary of what I experienced in South America (1H2016).




Some additional notes:
- As an European I did not need any Visa in any of the countries I have been.
- I did not need at any point a Carnet de Passage.
- It is possible to get a vehicle insurance which covers: Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Peru. Insurance for Colombia is mandatory and was obtained at Suramericana www.sura.com. Ecuador, no insurance required.

Who converted my nice home into a shithole and the yard into a jungle
