Japan -> Taiwan -> Philippines -> Indonesia
Here is our planned route for summer of 2012 to summer of 2013. We'll want to get across Russia/Siberia/Mongolia before it gets too chilly and so end up in Japan in about October. As you can see on the map, we would like to go from Japan to Taiwan to the Phillipines and then over to Borneo (either Malaysia or Indonesia). We are currently thinking that getting to northern India much before February/March would be too cold so that gives us about 5 months to do the Japan to SE Asia portion of the trip. The question is whether or not this route is even remotely reasonable.
- Has anyone here done any of these shipping routes before? By sea or air?
- Is Taiwan as impracticle to ride in as China (i.e. guides and guards)
- Is it possible to ship from the Phillipines to Borneo?
Any advice on this particular portion of the trip would be appreciated.
