I lived in Bulgaria for 7 years. It's scary driving when it feels like you're an alien in a different world... but do it enough, realise that people generally are super kind and helpful, and soon you grow to love it and the fear goes. You'll get hooked and they'll be no stopping you! Great vlogs Saffy 👍👍

Saffy, live your life by the edict of “treat every day as your last, one day you’ll be right”. Don’t get old and have those “I wish I’d” moments, just do it and to quote Bruce from Teapot One, “Live Your Life” Enjoy as we enjoy following you 👍

I really think you could benefit from a small screen on the front. It would allow you to drive on motorways without feeling like you are being pulled off the bike. I know you don’t plan for too many motorways but having that screen can make a huge difference at any speed above 60kmh.

Totally agree, no need to take ration packs in Europe . Fantastic bakeries, food markets in most towns you ride through. Takes 2 minutes to grab some bread, cheese etc. Eat a cooked lunch at roadside cafe for peanuts (look for the parked trucks and cars always a good sign) then no need to cook at night. All part of the learning curve and that's part of the adventure .
