Episode 45 – Laura & Simon

Around the World on Bicycles

I caught up with Laura and Simon to chat about the experiences they have had so far while exploring the world on their bicycles. Cycle touring is definitely the form of transport they identified as being the perfect way of travelling. Faster than walking, but slow enough to have an engaging experience. Allowing them to explore the world at a perfect speed to be truly immersed in the country they are travelling through.

They each shared their experiences on the road, the joys of wild camping as well as the overwhelming kindness of strangers. The latter is a constant theme which I’ve heard from all of my previous guests who have travelled the world in this manner, and Laura and Simon both spoke fondly about their interactions with strangers they have had so far.
