Maho and Masai


Maho and Masai

This is Maho and Masai. Two Japanese backpacker in my group out to the Angel Falls. Maho has been on the road for 1 1/2 years whilst Masai has been on the road for... 3 years!

Masai was cycling around South America when he bump into Maho in Ushuaia, Argentina 18 months ago. Together they travelled for 6 months and fell in love along the way. They are now engaged!

After a break of individual travels, they are back again travelling in Venezuela. After this, Maho plans to travel in Central America for another 6 months, whilst Masai has another monster 3 years of biking to be done. He plans to cycle through United States, Europe and Asia before returning home to Japan.

I tell you, Japanese travellers are some of the coolest and most hardcore of all travellers I meet along the way. They would travel into hot spots, without speaking the language, nor have a full grasp of English. I also respect them for their politeness and easy going nature.
