    Crossing the Latvian border into the northernmost and final Baltic state. According to people from Lithuania and Latvia, the Estonians are a bit different. In the Estonian countryside I find a gym in an old building where I train with new English speaking generation of this sparsely populated country.

    Easely the best episode so far. Might as well say that each new episode is better from the last. The editing, the story, the shots.
    Good job Pedro! You are an inspiration for many of us. Keep up the good work!

The other day I was thinking of your previous episodes where you stayed in various places throughout your journey. I need to go back and watch them again and make a list for my future trips.

    I would have suggested to enter Estonia through Ainaži/Ikla - that is the old highway closer to the sea and in my opinion it is much nicer (unless the goal is speed).
    Also - if there is a "J" in any Latvian name, pronounce it more like "Y" if you want to be more accurate.

    Hi Pedro,
    I’m the guy with the expired TIP in Argentina. So I finally got the bike back from the mechanic after about a month. I decided to ride to the border and take my chances. I was thinking of maybe photoshopping the date on the TIP, the reason I didn’t was mainly because the TIP was associated with my old passport which expired last year. So I thought I would play the Covid card, which in reality is true. But the Aduana doesn’t care. They confiscated the bike and for three days I tried bargaining with them, trying to get the price down. Long story short, you get screwed by the Aduana when your TIP expires. My bike is an old, beat up KLR with tons of miles, but it still runs great. He valued it at $3k usd; even though I showed him that I only paid $1k usd for it. The tax was $2465 usd. Total joke. But the good news is I could pay the tax with the blue rate, which brought the price down to about $650 usd. Decided to pay. Aduana then gives me two days to get bike over the border. I immediately enter into Uruguay. I spend one night and re enter Argentina at another border crossing. No problem and another 8 months TIP. Just crazy huh? I have to say all the Aduana agents were very nice guys, but the decision makers want their money. I think changing the date would probably have worked, they are computerized and can look up your border crossings, but I think you might be able to blame it on their side if any confusion arises. But for me, a little risky and I wanted to be able to reenter Argentina with a vehicle again. Plus my Spanish is not great and zero Portuguese. I think they should have been more lenient because of Covid, but no way. Your other alternative is hire a lawyer and try to lower the valuation of bike, but this could take months. So moral of story, never let your TIP expire! Good luck with yours when the time comes. The other option is to just sell it in Argentina.

    Your mics seem great. Either that or you each have comm devices on.
    5:20 It sounds like you are saying pronOUnciation rather than pronunciation. I could swear that you used that correctly before. It's probably just a sound thing that seems to be occurring while you are about your business. Even in the CC transcript it didn't catch it: Instead of Scandinavian feel in the pronunciation, it just says: "initiation". I've noticed that one of the best ways to find an person unfamiliar with English is find out how they pronounce "pronunciation" and whether or not they constantly use "theses ones". Numeric declaratives are not actually used in English. Although colloquially people seem to be using it more and more. Mostly as a hold over from other languages.
    6:23 the transcript actually thought you pronounced pronUnciation so, I'm wondering if I'm hearing you wrong?
    That meal looks tempting.
