About Me

I’m 27yo French cyclist, currently travelling solo with my mountain bike in Morocco. After 7y working full time as a bike messenger and experiencing a tough burn out, I decided to quit and take care of my health.

I got into Tanger at the beginning of January and plan to get to Marrakech in a few weeks where I will join people to race through the Atlas moutains to finish in Essaouira.

I take this journey day by day, giving space to spontaneity and discovery. I usually prefer to ride paths in the moutains than cycling on big roads.

As I am going to spend the full 3 months of the visa in the country, I would like to share moments with locals or people keen on sharing their knowledge of the place they live in.
