The start (Dugga Dugga)

Packed my bike in the suitcase, packed biking supply etc. put printouts in the suitcase for TSA people to explain that it's just a normal bike, disassembled, packed in a normal size suitcase. I think I took everything I need for living alone for 2 weeks in Turin Italy and "work" there 😜. Also practiced Italian for 100 days straight ... Activated Verizon for phone, even packed a new hotspot device (Solis) with a global plan as a backup! It's going to be good!

Went to airport in a taxi/Uber. Driver was new to Iowa ... But got me there. Bag weighed 49.5 lbs (50lbs limit) .. yaay! Almost feel bad not putting something small like shoes there...

Flight was ok. Watched American Fiction that I wanted to see. It was ok. Tried taking some homeopathic tablets from Amazon that reviewers said work for jetlags (it didn't). Detroit. Amsterdam. Turin. All went ok. Bags came intact and my bike was ok.Meer informatie
