After two years of crossing the world, I made it to Nepal with one goal in mind: continue on to Japan and fulfil a dream-riding across the country during Sakura season.

Winter closing in, snow starting to fall, I stored my bike and gear in Kathmandu with a courier who assured me everything would be safe, insured, and secure.

Three months later, I went to collect it at Tokyo Airport—excited like a kid on Christmas morning.

I opened the crate and found everything chewed through.

Rats had gotten inside. The crate hadn’t been sealed properly.

My luggage, riding gear, helmet, boots, tent, and even the bike’s wiring—all destroyed.

Around $10,000 worth of damage.

The courier has stopped responding, and trying to take legal action from abroad in Nepal isn’t realistic.

A trip that’s been years in the making has come to a sudden stop.

If you’re able to help-even a small amount-it will go directly toward replacing gear, repairs, and getting me back on the road to circumnavigating Japan and continuing toward Africa.

With limited time on my visa and vehicle permit, I need to rebuild as quickly as possible before I’m forced to ship the bike out of Japan.

I’m determined to keep going.

Thank you for being part of that šŸ™

Everything I’ve been traveling with for the past two years is gone.

From tent to boots.

After nearly two years on the road, I finally shipped my motorcycle from Nepal to Japan to continue the journey. What was meant to be a dream come true - circumnavigating Japan during Sakura season, quickly turned into a nightmare. When I un-crated the bike at the airport, I found that rodents had gotten inside.

They had chewed through all my gear, destroyed essential equipment, and damaged the bike itself. What I rely on every day to travel and live is no longer usable.

This comes after being hit by an uninsured driver in India, which left me recovering for months—entirely self-funded. I pushed through that, determined to keep going.

Now I’m starting over from almost nothing.

The courier company in Nepal that stored my bike failed to properly seal or insure the shipment despite repeated assurances, and pursuing this in Nepal is extremely difficult.

Right now, I’m stuck, trying to figure out how to rebuild what was lost and continue the journey.
