Jupiter's Travels is a remarkable chronicle of one man's journey around the globe, capturing the essence of adventure, discovery, and the human spirit. Ted Simon, an intrepid motorbike enthusiast, embarks on a four-year journey that takes him through over 45 countries, immersing himself in diverse cultures and landscapes.
