Counted nearly 50.000 kilometers in about 5 years, more or less continously solo pedaling through more than 40 countries. I started off in Africa, where I cycled first through Europe to get accustomed to the cycling lifestyle. When my bicycle broke down I went back to Europe to have the bicycle fixed and continued on, among other countries, via Iraq and Iran. The highlight and also the downfall of my cycling odyssey happened in South america.

Show on two Wheels: whether you like it or not, you as a lone female are more a of a show than any other combination of people on a bicycle! Get used to it.
About Africa
Being in Georgia so quick after Africa did make me think back about this absolute different continent as where I was at that moment, slowly I started to miss certain aspects of it, and so this ‘Africa from A to Z’ was born.
Waarom. De vraag ‘waarom’ komt weer op. Dit keer in Nigeria. Als je als lezers dit vraagstuk beu bent kun je deze post beter nu meteen weg klikken. Maar de vraag ‘waarom’ houd me wederom bezig. Een korte uiteenzetting over mijn gedachten volgt.
Sorry for you all English speaking people, this is a topic about ‘Why Africa’ and their problems, if at all problems, or do the West only see it as a problem.
