About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling along the Silk Road by bike...

ABOUT ME

We are travelling from France to East Asia with our recumbent bikes (lying on our bikes…). This travel is for us an opportunity to meet people of the world and different cultures. We want to experiment the simple life and find again the human character of the life.
For us, the more important things in the life are simplicity and humanity. And for this travel, sometimes we need your help to meet you, take a good shower (that doesn’t happen every day !), have good rest and of course, to discover your culture !
Like a children, we have many dreams to realize with you.

PHILOSOPHY

“Certains pensent qu’ils font un voyage, mais en fait c’est le voyage qui vous fait… ou vous défait” (“Some people think they do a travel trip… but anyway it’s the travel which makes you… our dismakes you”) Nicolas BOUVIER
