Xa abakhweli bempahla ebuyayo abakwiminyaka yabo yamashumi amabini besiya eMzantsi-mpuma Asia, bapakisha iisuti zabo zokuqubha eziqhelekileyo, izinto zokugxotha izinambuzane, iindondo zelanga, mhlawumbi neencwadi ezimbalwa ukuze bagcine indawo yabo ngoxa benyamekela ukulunywa ziingcongconi kunxweme olushushu lweziqithi zaseThai..
Nangona kunjalo, eyona peninsula incinci kukuba kufuneka uhambe ngebhayisekile iimayile ezingama-9,300 ukuya eNewcastle.
Kodwa le yinto eyenziwa nguJosh Reid.Ithambo lepani lalibotshelelwe emqolo njengofudo laza labhabha laya kwelinye icala lehlabathi, lisazi ukuba uhambo lwakhe lokubuya lwaluza kuthabatha ngaphezu kwesiqingatha sosuku.
"Ndahlala etafileni yasekhitshini, ndancokola notata kunye no-godfather, kwaye ndafumanisa izinto ezahlukeneyo endinokuthi ndizenze," uReid uxelele iBicycle Weekly malunga nendawo yokuzalwa kombono.Kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo, uReid wasebenza njengomqeqeshi we-ski ebusika, umlimi wemithi yasehlotyeni eBritish Columbia, kwaye wafumana i-visa yeminyaka emibini yokusebenza eCanada, egqiba umsebenzi wakhe eMntla Melika, kwaye wakhwela ibhayisekile eNova Scotia. uya eKapa Breton.
>>>Abakhweli beebhayisikile babulawa kufutshane namakhaya abo ngelixa behamba ngeebhayisekile, besindisa ubomi obuthandathu ngokunikela ngokwamalungu
Kule mihla, kuba iibhayisekile ezininzi zenziwe e-Asiya, umbono kukungenisa ngokwakho iibhayisekile.Uhambo lwathatha iinyanga ezine ngo-2019, kwaye ngenxa yokuba ubhubhani we-coronavirus wenze nzima ukuthenga iibhayisekile ngo-2020, indlela yakhe ingqineke iyiyo.
Emva kokufika eSingapore ngoMeyi, waya emantla waza wagilana nebhayisekile kwiinyanga nje ezimbini.Ngelo xesha, wazama ukusebenzisa ibhayisekile yaseDatshi ukwenza kwakhona indawo ye-Top Gear kwi-Hai Van Pass eVietnam.
Ekuqaleni, ndandifuna ukuthenga ibhayisekile eKhambodiya.Kwafumaniseka ukuba kwakunzima ukuthabatha ibhayisekile ngokuthe ngqo kumgca wendibano.Ke ngoko, waya eShanghai, apho bavelisa ngobuninzi ibhayisekile besuka kumgangatho womzi-mveliso omkhulu.Bamba ibhayisekile.
UReid uthe: "Ndiyazi ukuba ngawaphi amazwe endinokuhamba kuwo.""Ndikhe ndabona ngaphambili kwaye ndabona ukuba ndingafaka isicelo se-visa kwaye inokuphatha ngokukhuselekileyo i-geopolitics kwimimandla eyahlukeneyo, kodwa ndiphantse ndanamaphiko kwaye i-Turmoil yaya ngqo eNewcastle."
UReid akanyanzelekanga ukuba afake umgama omninzi yonke imihla, okoko nje enokutya namanzi, uyakuvuyela ukulala engxoweni encinci ecaleni kwendlela.Okumangalisayo kukuba, wayeneentsuku ezine kuphela imvula kulo lonke uhambo, kwaye xa ephinda engena eYurophu, ixesha elininzi lalisele liphelile.
Ngaphandle kukaGarmin, usebenzisa usetyenziso kwifowuni yakhe ukuya ekhayeni lakhe.Nanini na xa efuna ukuhlamba okanye efuna ukutshaja izixhobo zakhe zombane, utsibela kwigumbi lehotele, athabathe amajoni eterracotta, izindlu zoonongendi zamaBhuda, akhwele uqhushululu olukhulu, kwaye asebenzise iArkel Panniers neeRobens iipads zokulala ezilungele abantu abalungileyo. abanomdla kuzo zonke izixhobo, nokuba abayazi indlela yokuphindaphinda i-Reid's feat.
Elinye lawona maxesha anzima yayiluhambo ekuqaleni kohambo.Uhambe waya ngasentshona edlula eTshayina ukuya kumaphondo akumntla-ntshona, apho bekungekho baninzi abakhenkethi, kwaye wayebaphaphele abantu basemzini, njengoko ngoku kukho i-1 yesigidi samaSilamsi e-Uyghur ebanjiweyo kulo mmandla.Iziko lokuvalelwa.Xa uReid edlula kwiindawo ezitshekishwayo rhoqo kwiikhilomitha ezingama-40, wayichitha idrone wayifihla phantsi kwesutikheyisi, kwaye wasebenzisa iToliki kaGoogle ukuncokola namapolisa anobuhlobo, awayesoloko emnika ukutya.Kwaye benza ngathi abaqondi ukuba babuza nayiphi na imibuzo enzima.
E-China, eyona ngxaki inkulu kukuba ukukhempisha akukho mthethweni.Abantu basemzini kufuneka bahlale ehotele rhoqo ebusuku ukuze urhulumente akwazi ukugcina umkhondo wemisebenzi yabo.Ngobunye ubusuku, amapolisa amaninzi amkhuphela isidlo sangokuhlwa, kwaye abantu balapho bambukele ethambisa ii-noodles kwiLycra ngaphambi kokuba amthumele ehotele.
Xa wayefuna ukuhlawula, amapolisa ali-10 akhethekileyo aseTshayina anxibe amakhaka okuzikhusela kwiimbumbulu, imipu namakhuni, aqhekeza, abuza imibuzo ethile, aza amqhuba ngelori, ayijula ​​ngebhayisekile emva kwakhe, aza amqhubela kwindawo awayiqhubayo. wayesazi apho.Kungekudala emva koko, kwaphuma umyalezo kunomathotholo othi ngenene angahlala kwihotele awayesandul’ ukungena kuyo. UReid wathi: “Ndagqibela ngokuhlamba ehotele ngentsimbi yesibini ekuseni.”Ndifuna nje ukuyishiya indawo yase China.
UReid walala ecaleni kwendlela kwiNtlango yaseGobi, ezama ukuphepha iingxabano ezingakumbi namapolisa.Xa ekugqibeleni wafikelela kumda waseKazakhstan, uReid waziva ekhathazekile.Wayenxibe umnqwazi obanzi, obanzi, encumile exhawula izandla.
Kweli nqanaba kuhambo, kuninzi ekufuneka ahambe, kwaye sele edibene nobunzima.Ngaba ukhe wacinga ngokumgxotha aze abhukishe inqwelo-moya yokubuya elandelayo?
UReid uthe: "Kunokuthatha umgudu omkhulu ukuya kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya, kwaye ndenze isithembiso."Xa kuthelekiswa nendawo apho kungekho ndawo yokuya kuyo, ukulala phantsi kwe-terminal kuyinkimbinkimbi kunokuba i-logistics yokulala emagxeni abantu abangenayo indawo yokuya kuyo.Ukwabelana ngesondo akufunwa eChina.
“Ndibaxelele abantu ngale nto ndiyenzayo kwaye ndisavuya.Oku kuseyi-adventure.Andizange ndizive ndingakhuselekanga.Andizange ndicinge ngokuyeka.”
Xa ukhwele kwisiqingatha somhlaba ukwimeko engenakuzinceda, kufuneka ulungele ukujongana nezinto ezininzi kwaye uzilandele.Kodwa eyona nto imangalisayo kaReid bububele babantu.
Wathi: “Ububele babasemzini buyamangalisa.”Abantu bakumema nje, ngakumbi kuMbindi Asia.Okukhona ndisiya eNtshona, kokukhona besiba krwada ngakumbi.Ndiqinisekile ukuba abantu banobuhlobo kakhulu.Umamkeli-zindwendwe wandinika amanzi okuhlamba ashushu kunye nezinto, kodwa abantu baseNtshona bakwilizwe labo ngakumbi.Banexhala lokuba iiselfowuni kunye nezinto ziya kwenza abantu batshise, ngoxa abantu baseMpuma Ngokuqinisekileyo bathanda uMbindi weAsia, abantu banomdla wokwazi oko ukwenzayo.Banomdla ngakumbi kuwe.Abaziboni uninzi lwezi ndawo, kwaye ababoni nabemi baseNtshona abaninzi.Banomdla kakhulu kwaye banokuza kukubuza imibuzo, kwaye ndiqinisekile, njengaseJamani, ukhenketho lwebhayisekile luxhaphakile, kwaye abantu bathanda ukungathethi nawe kakhulu.
UReid uqhubeke wathi: "Eyona ndawo inobubele endakha ndayifumana kumda weAfghanistan."“Indawo apho abantu bathanda ukungayi apho, imbi kakhulu, yeyona ndawo inobuhlobo ndakha ndayibona.UmSilamsi Le ndoda yandimisa, yathetha kakuhle isiNgesi, saza sancokola.Ndiye ndambuza ukuba azikho na iindawo zokuhlala edolophini, kuba ndike ndahamba kwezi lali kwaye kwakungekho ndawo icacileyo.
Wathi: 'Ukuba nithe nabuza nabani na kule lali, uya kunilalisa ubusuku bonke.'Wandisa kwaba bantu baselula ecaleni kwendlela, wancokola nabo, wathi, “Balandele”.Ndilandele aba bafo kwezi zindledlana, bandisa kwamakhulu wabo.Bandibeka phantsi phantsi komatrasi ofana nesiUzbek, bandityisa zonke izimuncumuncu zabo zasekuhlaleni, baza bandisa apho kusasa endathi ndityelele ummandla wabo ngaphambili.Ukuba uthatha ibhasi yabakhenkethi usuka kwindawo oya kuyo, uya kuzifumana ezi zinto, kodwa ngebhayisekile uya kudlula yonke imayile endleleni.”
Xa uhamba ngebhayisikili, eyona ndawo inzima kakhulu yiTajikistan, kuba indlela iphakama ukuya kwi-4600m, eyaziwa nangokuthi "uphahla lwehlabathi".UReid uthe: “Intle kakhulu, kodwa inemingxuma kwiindlela ezimbi, ezinkulu kunayo nayiphi na indawo ekumntla-mpuma weNgilani.
Ilizwe lokugqibela elanikezela ngendawo yokuhlala kwiReid yiBulgaria okanye iSerbia eseMpuma Yurophu.Emva kweekhilomitha ezininzi, iindlela ziziindlela, kwaye amazwe aqala ukuba mfiliba.
“Ndandimise inkampu ecaleni kwendlela ndinxibe isuti yam, emva koko yandikhonkotha le nja.Umfana weza kundibuza, kodwa akukho namnye kuthi owayenolwimi olufanayo.Wakhupha ipeni nephepha wazoba intonga.Wandikhomba, wazoba indlu, wazoba imoto, wandula ke walatha imoto yakhe.Ndifake ibhayisekile emotweni yakhe, wandisa kowabo ukuze andiphakele, ndahlamba, Ibhedi ingasetyenziswa.Kwasa kwasa wandithatha sayotya okunye ukutya.Ungumzobi, ngoko ke wandinika esi sibane seoli, kodwa wandithumela kuphela endleleni yam.Sasingathethi ulwimi lomnye.Ewe.Maninzi amabali afanayo athetha ngobubele babantu.”
Emva kweenyanga ezine zokuhamba, uReid ekugqibeleni wabuyela ekhaya ngoNovemba 2019. Ukufakela ifilimu uhambo lwakhe kwi-akhawunti yakhe ye-Instagram kuya kwenza ukuba ufune ukubhukisha ithikithi yendlela enye kwindawo ekude ngokukhawuleza kwaye wenze i-documentary ye-YouTube ephantsi ezisa i-detoxification epheleleyo. ukuhlela ngokugqithisileyo kunye nokunyuswa ngokugqithisileyo kwe-Arhente yeqonga.UReid ngoku unebali aza kulixelela abazukulwana bakhe.Akanazo naziphi na izahluko anokuzibhala kwakhona, okanye ukuba unokuphinda abhale, kungcono ukukrazula amaphepha athile.
“Andiqinisekanga ukuba ndiyafuna na ukwazi ukuba kwenzeke ntoni.Kumnandi ukungazi,” utshilo.“Ndicinga ukuba olu luncedo lokuyiyeka ibhabha kancinane.Awunokwazi.Kwimeko nayiphi na into, awuyi kukwazi ukucwangcisa nantoni na.
“Ezinye izinto ziya kuhlala zingahambi kakuhle, okanye ezinye ziya kwahluka.Kufuneka unyamezele nje okwenzekayo.”
Umbuzo ngoku ngowokuba, ukukhwela ibhayisekile kwisiqingatha sehlabathi, luhlobo luni lohambo olwaneleyo lokumkhupha ebhedini kusasa?
Uyavuma esithi: “Kumnandi ukukhwela ibhayisekile ukusuka ekhaya ukuya eMorocco,” uvuma ngelithi, nangona ingeloncumo nje oluvuyisayo emva kohambo lwakhe olunyamezelayo.
“Ekuqaleni bendicwangcise ukuthatha inxaxheba kugqatso lweTranscontinental, kodwa lwarhoxiswa kulo nyaka uphelileyo,” utshilo uReid, okhule nale moto.Ke, ukuba iyaqhubeka kulo nyaka, ndiza kuyenza.
UReid uthe enyanisweni, kuhambo lwakhe olusuka eChina ukuya eNewcastle, kufuneka enze into eyahlukileyo.Kwixesha elizayo ndipakisha impahla yokuqubha enye kuphela, ndinxibe ezimbini kubhaka wam, ndize ndizikhwelise zonke ndigoduke.
Ukuba ufuna ukuhlala ngokuzisola, ke ukupakisha izibini ezimbini zemithi yokubhukuda lukhetho oluhle.
