Today we have some travel inspiration from Jacob Laukaitis, who bought a motorbike and rode 8000kms across the Balkan States, filming as he went. This video of his journey will make you want to pack up and hit the road.

Motorbike journey in the Balkans

A journey across the Balkans

I was born and raised in Eastern Europe, but have never been to any of the Balkan states. So this Summer I bought a motorbike, got my driver’s license, shaved my head and left for one of the most amazing adventures of my entire life.

Eventually I motorbiked 8,000 kilometers across 15 countries and 19 borders completely alone. It took me 4 weeks. These are the countries I went through:

Lithuania > Poland > Czech Republic > Austria > Slovenia > Croatia > Bosnia and Herzegovina > Montenegro > Albania > Greece > Macedonia > Kosovo > Serbia > Romania > Hungary > Slovakia > Poland > Lithuania.

I hope you enjoy this video of the journey.
