Generally, I read a lot of adventure stories, especially adventure stories of women. But this only 21-year-old fearless and fabulous woman fascinated me. I read her story about cycling 29,000 km worldwide, and I was immediately hooked (check out her story in Jenny Tough – „Tough Women. Adventure Stories „).
Shortly after I have arrived in Germany I decided to go cycling. I always loved to cycle – I used to go on long and far trips, and after having hiked so much during the last two years, I longed for going on a cycling trip. I had this idea in mind for quite a bit and ideally I would have wanted to cycle all the way to Warsaw, where I lived for a while a couple of years back.
