Our Journey Begins

Welcome to our travel blog! We are Annalisa and Germain, and we are embarking on an exciting adventure to travel the world by bike. We have sold or gotten rid of all our excess belongings, including clothing, to make room for this incredible journey.

Preparing for the Trip

Before setting off on our bike trip, we spent a significant amount of time preparing ourselves and our bikes. We studied bike mechanics to ensure that we have the necessary skills to handle any repairs or maintenance that may arise along the way.

Choosing the right components for our bikes was a crucial step in our preparation. We carefully researched and selected each part, considering factors such as durability, weight, and functionality. Our goal was to create bikes that are not only reliable but also optimized for long-distance travel.

One of the most exciting aspects of our preparation was learning how to build wheels. We wanted to have a deep understanding of every component of our bikes, and building our own wheels allowed us to do just that. It was a challenging but rewarding process, and we are proud to say that we successfully built wheels that are strong and reliable.

Sharing Our Experiences

Throughout our journey, we will be documenting our experiences, thoughts, and findings on this blog. We believe that sharing our adventures will not only allow us to reflect on our own journey but also inspire and inform others who are interested in similar travel experiences.

We will be sharing photographs and videos to give you a glimpse into the places we visit, the people we meet, and the challenges we face. Our hope is to capture the beauty and diversity of the world and share it with our readers.

Additionally, we will be writing about the lessons we learn along the way. Traveling by bike is not just about the physical journey; it is also a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. We will share our insights, tips, and advice on topics such as sustainable travel, minimalism, and embracing a slower pace of life.

Join Us on Our Adventure

We invite you to join us on this incredible adventure as we pedal our way around the world. Through our blog, we hope to inspire others to pursue their own dreams of exploration and to appreciate the beauty of our planet.
