CURRENT MISSION

Cycling as far as our legs carry us :)

In May 2018 Sami and I left Schongau, Germany and cycled East, first across Europe (Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania & Bulgaria) and then across Asia (Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia & Singapore). When we hit the Southchinese Sea and couldn't cycle further we flew to San Francisco (US) and are now on our way South, eventually to Argentina...

ABOUT ME

I spent about 8 months in Nepal in 2011/2012, volunteering in a children's home and in a tibetan mountain school. It was great and I'll definitely return one day. I loved the children and the mountains and this time gave me more than I ever expected. Also it was then when my passion for travelling really sparked :)
After Nepal I have been to Taizé for 2 months working as a volunteer.

I started hitchhiking in the spring of 2013 and since then I have spent a lot of free time on it.
In February 2014 I hitchhiked through Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia and Bulgaria until the Mediterranean Sea in Greece.
In September 2015 I hitchhiked through Austria and Solvakia to Ukraine and came back via Moldova, Romania, Hungary and Austria.
After graduating in December 2016 I had almost one year off. The first three months of 2017 I spent hitchhiking to Gambia and back, then I was again volunteering in Taizé for a few months. Then I was hitchhiking through North America during the summer.

In May 2018 I started my first long distance cycling trip together with my boyfriend Samuel. We are starting in Southern Germany and will slowly head East, first through Europe, then Asia. We will potentially reach Singapore a year after..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The scenery you see while walking the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal is one of the most beautiful things in this world.

Teach, Learn, Share

If I wasn't too absent minded during packing I will have brought a set of cards and would like to teach you some games. Maybe I brought my ukulele...

I have a big love for cooking and food, so I am happy to share recipes or improvise something together :) Let's pancake hard!
