Equipment
After many researches about gear, I've come to a conclusion...
GEAR IS EXPENSIVE!
So, I tried my best to save money, in order to make my trip last as long as I want to, but withoput taking any risks.
My allies for that mission :
Le bon coin : a gold mine for second hand gear (almost new, and much cheaper). It's a french site but you all have the equivalent in your countries.
Sportpursuit.com : private sales, mainly sports equipments. Delivery throughout Europe
Privatesportshop.fr ; private sales, mainly sports equipments. Delivery throughout Europe
Decathlon : Decathlon is a French company but has 1038 stores throughout the world. The quality of products is very good with pretty affordable prices.
Aliexpress : It's a chinese website on which I bought many small things for very few money. I decided not to buy the things I consider important (tent, kitchen...) eventhough the reviews are petty good.















The bike
Of course, I need a very reliable bike. It must hold for my world tour. So far, I have chosen that one :

Much less beautiful than what I expected, BUT :
It is German,
It is robust,
It is fully equiped,
And I can put stickers on it to make it more beautiful !
