Hi! We’re Julia and Tom, a British couple who have recently finished a 19,000 km cycling adventure from Singapore to London. 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Our journey took us through South East Asia, India, Central Asia, the legendary Pamir Highway, and Europe. For us, cycling is ultimate freedom and brings so much connection. It allows us to experience the world at our own pace, discover hidden gems, and meet amazing people along the way.

We both live for an active lifestyle and love pushing ourselves with triathlons, rock climbing, trail running, and road trips in our self-converted campervan (a project we started during lockdown).

Beyond adventure, we’re passionate about protecting the planet. As climate activists and vegans, we strive to live sustainably and leave a positive impact wherever we go.

We’re easygoing, social, and love hearing inspiring stories from the people we meet on the road. We're looking to give back to the CS community after receiving so much kindness from people across the world.

Looking forward to sharing good conversations, and hopefully, some great plant-based meals too!

Happy cycling :) Julia & Tom - Sheffield, UK.
