    China

    Hey! When I went to China for a day tour with China Private Tours & Local Tour Guides the process was smooth, but I applied for my visa beforehand. From what I know, you can get a Chinese visa in Nepal—Kathmandu has a Chinese consulate that travelers use often. Just plan for a few days for...

    Freeze Drying Food

    Homemade MREs, camping meals, and even freeze-dried candy are all worth trying. Don't worry about Spam being too fatty, give it a shot anyway.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Today I finally got around to overclocking my rig. I cranked up the CPU and GPU speeds, and let me tell you, it's like my computer is on steroids now. Games are running smoother than ever, and those render times? Pfft, they don't stand a chance. It was totally worth the extra heat and power...

    More than one unrepairable punctured tyre?

    Oh, I can imagine how frustrating that must have been! Two punctures in just 13 km in scorching heat? That's tough luck. Good thing you had a spare tire.

    More than one unrepairable punctured tyre?

    I had a similar experience on a road trip once. We were driving along and suddenly got a flat tire. We switched it out with the spare and continued on our way. But guess what? Just a few miles down the road, another tire blew out! It was such bad luck. We ended up having to use both spare tires...

    Habor Freight compressor

    I actually picked up the Harbor Freight 12V 150 PSI compressor a while back, and I gotta say, it's been a pretty handy little tool for me. I mainly use it to inflate my car tires and some inflatable stuff like pool toys and air mattresses. It's not the most powerful compressor out there, but for...

    naturenest rooftop tent

    I've actually had some experience with a similar setup. I mounted a rooftop tent on a small trailer for my camping trips, and it worked out pretty well. The lightweight nature of the tent and trailer combination made it easier for my vehicle to handle, especially on uphill drives through...
