Below is a summary of the countries we’ve visited with some information you might find useful. Please note that the amount we’ve spent per country includes everything, also repairs on the bike. The repairs on the bike, new tyres etc makes that the ave spent per day looks high, and does not necessarily reflect how much it will cost to travel in that country. In the UK for instance, we had to change the rear wheel bearing and a tyre that cost a lot of money, making it look like it is an expensive country to travel in, the same with some parts of the USA, Colombia and Chile.
