Morocco does look like a good shout - you could cover the Alps, Andorra then head to Morocco.. Now that would be some trip!

Glad I have inspired you. The Alps are truly amazing and there is so much to explore there!

Aye, Morocco is a dream of mine. Seems like a great country for a real overland trip, there are a lot of companies that offer overland guide services to Morocco too.

Good luck with the Alps, Hope you find some fun trails for it. :D
