North America content

Una Costa Productions has been fueled by a passion for motorcycle adventure travel, the Pacific Ocean and all things Latin America. On the site you will find a wide array of travel stories and photography inspired by the moto trip south. In 2013 I started south after leaving my University professorship in the United States and began this literary project with hopes of connecting the american continent through bilingual education, literature and literacy. The site is designed to be a collaborative of artists, writers and photographers across North and South America, a community where the political boundaries that separate us are non existent. With a bit more exploring of the site, the reader will find lessons and tips on learning Spanish as well. Beyond these elements of the project, Una Costa Productions seeks to inspire travel via short stories, poetry and photography from the back seat of a KLR 650.

Trevor Marc Hughes does his best to get to know his home province by motorcycle. Whether his adventures be three-day sorties along the forest service roads of Vancouver Island, or multi-week adventures into remote northern British Columbia, Trevor writes about his experiences in exciting detail. With links to his articles for a variety of Canadian print and online magazines about his explorations of B.C. on his Kawasaki KLR650, Trevor's website is full of travel tales that will provide inspiration and information about the terrain to be expected and ideas for places of interest to check out along the way. There are also links and information about Trevor's first book "Nearly 40 on the 37: triumph and trepidation on the Stewart-Cassiar Highway".

In August 2015 Janet and Scott quit their jobs in New Zealand and set off to visit Janet's parents in Ontario, Canada, stopping in at Buenos Aires, Argentina for Spanish school and some tourism on the way. In Ontario they bought two DR-Z400s and followed the final weeks of the most epic Toronto Blue Jays season in 20 years.
On 20 October 2015 they headed south on their bikes to beat the cold and to discover the Americas.
