Backpackers Along the Way

This group was backpacking its' way across Laos, but there were also quite a few bicyclists on long treks. I met Sylvia, an intriguing woman from Oregon who has been cycling her way around the world. When she cycled her way through Mexico she became something of a celebrity and Mexican TV covered her trip through the country. She is currently cycling through Southeast Asia and keeps a travel blog to chronicle her adventures. Quite the inspiration for me!
