Synopisis
While pedaling across the Uyuni Salt Flats, he heard the sound of the salt, cracking beneath the bike wheels. After finishing a pass, the wind whistled through the hood of the jacket, as he flew downhill. On the winding, desert tracks of South Lipez, bags gently tapped against the bike. In some moments, the music in the headphones amplified the joy of simply moving forward. But when he stopped for a pause, in the high altitudes of the Andes, a wave of pure silence, and the sensation of feeling all alone in the world overcame him.
