INTRO
I was really happy to spend time with my parents, to see new places and have a quieter life
Back in Bariloche I felt a strong urge and desire to start again, to get back into the adventure.
But getting the bike ready and putting all the things together for departure was hard. And also to leave Nicanor and Alejandra's family that I had grown attached to.
When I left again after about ten kilometers, I felt helpless, scared, sad and nostalgic
I didn't know where to find every item in the bags anymore, and with each climb I was struggling much more than I had ever remembered
I wanted comfort, someone to joke with, and a warm place to stay.
And instead what I had in front of me was adventure, cold, uncertainty, and all kinds of difficulties
Did I get weakling? should my journey stop here?
I try not to think about it and move on.

ABOUT
I am Giacomo, a 28-years-old aerospace engineer from Italy. I am not an athlete, nor a photographer. I am just a sensitive solo cyclist and enthusiast explorer, curious about discovering different cultures and keen on travelling into wild nature
On January 12th 2024 I started solo bikepacking from Ushuaia, Patagonia to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska for 2 years.
In 2021, before starting to work, I went solo bikepacking through the wildest parts of Iceland for 50 days. That is how my passion for bikepacking started. In 2022 I spent 3 months in Nepal. In these months I had been trekking and cycling through very remote areas which often remain untouched by tourists.In 2023 I went solo bikepacking the wild and vast Mongolian Steppe for 25 days.

Ode to Bikepacking and Fragility of Life

I have not seen a single person, car or any sign of human life since I left for this 4-day traverse of the Andes. I think, what if something happens to me? What if the bike breaks and I can't continue? I have the satellite GPS to call for help, but that would really be a last All of a sudden I feel overcome with fear. I have faced situations like this before in Mongolia, but I knew that within ...

Solo Cycling Mongolia | Unsupported Bikepacking Adventure

Activate the SUBTITLES to follow in ENGLISH INTRO In July 2023 I set off for a 25-days solo bikepacking adventure into the vast and wild Mongolian steppe. Mongolia is a place that, to me, has always been a land of adventure. Adventure because when you are there, alone, in the middle of the steppe, makes you fell really exposed, insignificant, vulnerable. At the same time gives you absolute free...

SOLO TUTTO - Wild Solo Bikepacking Sardinia
Переглядів 4752 роки тому
In October 2021 I decided to undertake a second 10-days solo bikepacking trip, this time in a very different environment with respect to Iceland. Sardinia is a stunning island, where is still possible to find unspoiled nature and real adventures. It is incredible how you can interact with locals in the everyday life and how much you can exchange with them. Again, solitude is bliss.
