Hi. We're David and Dalma. We’ve somehow convinced ourselves that riding motorcycles in the oddest corners of the world is a perfectly sensible thing to do.
Every year, usually when the rest of the world is nursing hangovers from Christmas, we pack up and head off to places like Indonesia, Thailand, or India. Once there, we find whatever two-wheeled contraption we can lay our hands on—sometimes they even start—and set off to experience the local culture, food, and all the unexpected bumps (both literal and metaphorical) along the way. We're hoping to do this full-time soon, assuming neither of us breaks anything important in the process.
On this website, you’ll find our blog, which tends to wake up in January when we’re out there somewhere trying to navigate a noodle bowl or a traffic circle that doesn't make sense. You’ll also stumble upon links to our YouTube channel. Yes, we know. Everyone has one of those. We’re not in it for the fame or glory—just for the fun of seeing where we’ve been, and occasionally laughing at what went wrong.
So, feel free to join us as we wobble our way through far-off lands, taste food we probably shouldn’t, and try our best to remember which side of the road we’re supposed to be on.

About David
David is an Australian musician and music academic who studies the intersection of music, regional areas, and tourism. In a past life, he worked as a pianist on cruise ships. He still plays piano around Sydney, where he alternates between hitting the keys and wondering why so many people request Piano Man. When he’s not doing that, he’s riding his trusty Royal Enfield Himalayan, affectionately named Billie, across Australia’s dusty roads and wondering if this is what the brochure promised.
About Dalma
Dalma, originally from Hungary, is a lawyer and academic with a formidable grasp of international arbitration and commercial law—things that sound terribly complicated and indeed are. She’s since settled in Australia, where she rides her own Royal Enfield Himalayan. Her bike’s called Shanti, which means 'peace,' though Dalma suspects Shanti has a different interpretation of the word when she hits the open road.
