Updated June 1, 2019 to add link to his latest video.
In May 2014, Iohan Gueorguiev (website – YouTube – Twitter – Instagram) started cycling from the Arctic Ocean at Tuktoyaktuk, in Canada’s Northwest Territories. The plan was to cycle to the tip of South America in a year, maybe a few more months.
Five years later, in May 2019, Iohan has reached Patagonia in Chile.
As I write this, Iohan hopes to reach Ushuaia, Argentina, at the southern tip of South America in a few months. After that he plans to continue carrying the Canadian and the Bulgarian flag into Europe as he continues his cycling adventure around the world.
It’s amazing what one person, on a bike, travelling with so little, in weather extremes that drop to -30 degrees, across vast distances between human settlements, relying only on human power, can accomplish.
Iohan has been documenting this journey with wonderful videos. I’ll update this post as he uploads new videos.
