When I joined Spinning Southward and started the 10,000 mile ride south with my camera and laptop, I thought my problems would be finding clean water and fighting off banditos, not trying to figure out where to fix technology in Latin America. Yet that was pretty much what characterized a major part of the trip for me.
This short film – “Los Technicos” – profiles the struggles as I rode through Latin America fixing my computer and camera equipment along the way.
The next post will be “Part 2,” and go into detail about all of the awesome new technology that has come out since, and how I would do it if I had to do it all over.
