We are sitting exhausted on the top of Half Dome, everything around us is underneath. Full of endorphins, happy of getting to the top &#8211; we know that we both like mountains and we know that we also enjoy travelling. &#8220;I would like to climb many more mountains together with you&#8221; &#8230;&#8221;YES&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So we know we want to make some big journey, now the question is if we want to travel before as test if we can be together &#8211; or as a &#8220;honey moon&#8221; and we&#8217;ll need to overcome all problems&#8230; We go for the B option. The wedding preparations begin and we make the web page <a href=\"http:\/\/e-j.sk\" target=\"_blank\">e-j.sk<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our honey moon travelling plan: trip around the world. At home we have a map of the world and we dream, imagine, plan, travel with finger&#8230; We definitely don&#8217;t have enough money for that so we decide to first go to USA to earn enough for one-year travelling.<br \/>\nIt will be a low-cost travelling &#8211; hitchhiking, local buses, sleeping in tent, <a href=\"http:\/\/couchsurfing.com\" target=\"_blank\">couchsurfing<\/a>.<br \/>\nIn march the process of getting visa begins and we buy fly tickets.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">April 1st &#8211; fool&#8217;s day joke: we run marathon and get to finish before the 5hour limit together holding hand. It was tough and worst muscle pain in our lives :)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We visit &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/horyamesto.sk\" target=\"_blank\">hory a mesto<\/a>&#8221; (mountains and city) film festival, see presentations of travellers and we decide to make our trip on bicycles. Doesn&#8217;t matter that we haven&#8217;t been to any longer bicycle trip or done at least 100km in a day. We&#8217;ll go from Provincetown (northeast of USA near to Boston) to Patagonia in Chile :-D<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">April 21st &#8211; wedding. Great day with great people. As wedding presents we get camping pot, ultralight tent, sleeping bags, special towels, and money (one more time a big THANKS to everybody!)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/50924997?byline=0&#038;portrait=0&#038;color=c9ff23\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">May &#8211; Evit finishes the university as Mgr art :) Jan interrupts the PhD and enjoys the unemployed life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">June &#8211; insurances, interrupt Slovak health insurance, Evit changes all IDs to the new name and thinks out the plan B when they don&#8217;t let her into USA (her visa are in a passport with old name which should be officially not valid). The travel agency tells us 3 days before departure that it&#8217;s not possible to take our bikes to the plane and only way is to change the flight to different company which would be more expensive than the bicycles&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So we leave them at home but we take our luggage in bicycle bags from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sportarsenal.cz\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sport Arsenal<\/a>, say bay to our friends, the parents take us to the airport in Budapest and we wait what&#8217;s going to happen with the invalid passport &#8230; nothing :) Everything is ok and we say goodbye to our parents till September 2013. There will be 3 more passport controls in Frankfurt, Toronto and Boston &#8211; how far will we make it? :)<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One year in shortcut &#8211; the birth of our travelling plan, events of those days, preparations&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":135,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","filesize_raw":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33,3,34],"tags":[6],"series":[],"class_list":["post-17","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-europe","category-cos","category-slovakia","tag-preparation"],"episode_featured_image":"https:\/\/www.cos.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/EvkaJanci_svadba_128.jpg","episode_player_image":"https:\/\/www.cos.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/cos_podcast.jpg","download_link":"","player_link":"","audio_player":false,"episode_data":{"playerMode":"dark","subscribeUrls":{"acast":{"key":"acast","url":"","label":"Acast","class":"acast","icon":"acast.png"},"amazon":{"key":"amazon","url":"","label":"Amazon","class":"amazon","icon":"amazon.png"},"google_play":{"key":"google_play","url":"","label":"Google Play","class":"google_play","icon":"google-play.png"},"google_podcasts":{"key":"google_podcasts","url":"","label":"Google Podcasts","class":"google_podcasts","icon":"google-podcasts.png"},"podbean":{"key":"podbean","url":"","label":"Podbean","class":"podbean","icon":"podbean.png"},"soundcloud":{"key":"soundcloud","url":"","label":"SoundCloud","class":"soundcloud","icon":"soundcloud.png"},"spotify":{"key":"spotify","url":"","label":"Spotify","class":"spotify","icon":"spotify.png"}},"rssFeedUrl":"https:\/\/www.cos.sk\/en\/feed\/podcast\/cos","embedCode":"<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"fDrSQ2M6TC\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cos.sk\/en\/17\/pred-cestou\/\">Before the trip<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cos.sk\/en\/17\/pred-cestou\/embed\/#?secret=fDrSQ2M6TC\" width=\"500\" height=\"350\" title=\"&#8220;Before the trip&#8221; &#8212; COS\" data-secret=\"fDrSQ2M6TC\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\"><\/iframe><script>\n\/*!
