The days are getting shorter, and soon we’ll be singing Christmas carols and waiting under the tree to see what Santa Claus has brought us.

Some may hope for new tires, a better exhaust, or a big stash of gas for endless rides. 🏍️💨

But deep down, it’s not the things we crave – it’s what they bring us: breathtaking sunsets in the desert, unforgettable memories, and the ultimate feeling of freedom.

We can’t wait to hit the desert again, to scratch up that new exhaust, burn through fresh tires, and empty our gas supply! How about you? 😎

Ciao, Algeria, arrivederci!

Anybody else wonders why the (ex) pride of Italy, ex-Alitalia (now ITA Airways, Italia Trasporti Aerei Airways) fly aircraft registered in Ireland? That includes all the former Alitalia planes now flying for ITA that used to be registered in Italy and now boast Irish flag on their tails. Remember, Alitalia bankrupted at the beginning of the pandemic (and Desert Soul didn't).

Here's the fascinating answer:

The answer is twofold. In 2001 several countries got together to sign a treaty called "The Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment."
It was designed to ensure that the owners of high-priced movable objects, such as aircraft, could be recovered if lessors defaulted on payments. Eighty-four counties, including Ireland, signed the treaty, but Italy and Russia did not.
It would be difficult to repossess a plane registered in Italy

This means that if an Italian airline fails to make a payment on the lease of an aircraft registered in Ireland, it can quickly be repossessed. However, if the leased aircraft was registered in Italy and the airline defaulted on a payment, the plane's owner would need help getting it back.
Despite Italy being in the European Union, the aircraft's owner would have to navigate the Italian judicial system. They would first need to start at a local level and then work up to a higher court, with the entire process possibly taking years to resolve.

Secondly, Ireland has very favorable tax laws for large corporations. Guinness Peat Aviation was the first aircraft leasing company to select Ireland in 1975. Others soon followed, including the world's fourth-largest aircraft leasing company SMBC Aviation Capital in 2012. Today one in five leased commercial passenger aircraft is registered in Ireland. Ireland is a beneficiary of this, with aircraft leasing companies accounting for 2.6% of the nation's gross domestic product (GDP).

Corporation tax in Ireland is 12.5% in the aircraft leasing sector, and under section 110, leasing companies can claim back all their expenses.

🚌 Ok, it's not from today - spotted a couple of days ago in Beni Abbas in central Algeria. It is a mobile post office, serving all the surrounding villages on a daily basis.
It's an SNVI 100 V8 with exactly the same engine we have in one of our Desert Soul Adventures trucks: a V8 Deutz F8L413F air-cooled engine, still being built into vehicles more than 30 years after ours was fitted into the truck.

Anybody any idea about what brand these beauties are? My conclusions: the truck has a Deutz engine and Chinese 14.00R20 tyres; the car is probably not a BMW.
Anybody knows more?

And then, there are another 390 km from Tamanrasset to the border with Niger. So roughly, 2.400 km from the north to the south of the country.

Reinforced guiding team today. Some kind of success was achieved today. Moving southwards. 47°C only. A bit disappointed - seems that I missed the strong heat wave. 😂

And so we killed the day and returned to Ghardaia instead of advancing to El Menia. I simply can't leave this place with empty hands. The gain of today is only that now we know that we don't know much. Been offline for most of the day, which most importantly included satellite imagery - changed the SIM card and skyrocketed to 4G.
Another attempt tomorrow morning.
My apologies for the poor sound quality - only did one take and found it out too late.

Our Story

Tilen’s love for deserts, combined with professional field experience in tourism business since 1996, gave birth to the Desert Soul brand in 2003.

Till 2010, Desert Soul was only promoting desert adventure, cultural interchange and the beauty of desert landscapes while extending the horizons of (mainly) Western tourism markets. Since then, the Desert Soul Adventures brand runs guided enduro motorcycle and mountain bike tours in Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Slovenia and Bosnia and provides rally assistance in Europe and the MENA (Middle East & North Africa) region.

Thanks to Tilen’s knowledge of languages, our tours are guided in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Croatian and Slovenian, but he can also communicate in French, Italian, German and Arabic.
