I am Richard, 21 years young and i am currently studying in the beautiful Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I will continue my studies till january 2018 and then i am done, finally. I am so excited about this project. I am really looking forward to this for a really long time now.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="" width="100%" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/472651/Screenshot-2017-12-8_Yamaha_XJR_1200_in_Superzustand_-1512743585.png" /></p><p> </p><p>Because after my studies, in end of February 2018, on the 25th, i plan to drive from KL to Paris by motorcycle (more than 13.000 km). That is quiet a distance and i am aware of it. But i want to get active and do something unique and rememberable. My plan is to finish the trip after 3 month. So i will be back in the end of May. I am pretty flexible, so i do not want to be that specific about the time. I will see how it goes! That's how I do it most of times and in the past it always went quite well. </p><p> I already bought a motorbike over here, a fantastic Yamaha XJR 1200. I bought this beauty from another backpacker who already travelled through whole Vietnam with her. So the bike is already used to travelling a lot.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="" width="100%" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/472753/MAP-1512788678.png" /></p><p> </p><p>I plan to visit these following countries on the way to France: Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar, India, Nepal, China, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Czechia, Germany and finally France.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="" width="100%" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/472655/home_slider01-1512743913.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>I got everything prepared. I just need a bit of funding for the equipment (camera, food and beverages etc.), gas, and bureaucracy stuff like Visa. The funding goes directly to me personally, so i am able to invest as fast as possible and make this trip happen. I would of course tell you guys everything about it when i am back home and I will create a film about this awesome trip and upload it on YouTube, for sure. So guys, make it happen with me!</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Thank you!</p><p>Your Richard</p>
