And while many of his school friends were preparing for college, Liam Garner began preparing for the adventure of his life.
He’d longed to go on a “crazy adventure” for years, and as Liam Garner’s high school graduation day grew closer, the teenager was more determined than ever to make his escape. An experienced cyclist, Garner, who is from Long Beach, California, had previously ridden from Los Angeles to San Francisco, and realized that he could pedal across the continent without much difficulty if he chose to.
Of the many countries he cycled through, he was particularly surprised by El Salvador, which he describes as “one of the most peaceful, nicest, quietest countries.” While the trip was full of incredible highs, Garner also experienced some crushing lows throughout the journey. He says he was robbed at least five times and had to spend a month in hospital after coming off his bike in Colombia and landing on his head.
