It’s the Final Countdown

Done!

Travelling straight through Europe (Czech, Austria, Germany and Belgium) to make sure that we arrive in time to handover Emmazwo to be shipped off to Argentina! On Friday the 21.9 at 10;00, we did exactly that.

The harbour in Zeebrugge is huge, but thank the perfectly organised handoff, it was relatively easy to navigate our way through Zeebrugge and the harbour. The hardest part was leaving the car, fully packed with everything I will need in South America, unlocked parked by the harbour, with the key on the passenger seat!!! I guess you just have to trust that the arrival of Emmazwo will be as good as the handoff.

My niece Kimi, who drove with me to Zeebrugge, is responsible for the

placement of the paper in the window (see placement: African style)

A big thank you to Susanne who has been doing all the unloved paperwork, and for handling a German Travel Insurance for me (Allianz), that the Argentinean insurance in Pesos will now pay onto an American Account. Globalisation!

Thank you also to my nephew Tobias. He helped me with the brakes and the motor. Thank you Tobi!

The tracker on Emmazwo is working and can be tracked from Tuesday onwards!

Since this blog is no longer only being read by friends and family, I thought I would tell you a little bit about myself.

My name is Klaus and I am a 58 year old born Austrian, now living in Bayern. I’ve loved travelling my whole life and now after a divorce and surviving a serious illness, I’ve persuaded my boss (nicely, but with a bit of force!) to give me a 4 month sabbatical.

So on the 13th of October, I’ll fly from Munich to Buenos Aires, and I’ll be back on the 14th of February 2019.

Stay Tuned!
