CYCLING THE WORLD / AN EXPEDITION BY TWO FRIENDS TWO BICYCLES & ONE BIG ADVENTURE.

SPAIN → UNKNOWN DESTINATION / STARTING 1 MAY

01 / OUR STORY / BEFORE THE FIRST KILOMETRE

WHO ARE WE?

We are Miguel and Max, two friends who met during our university years in Denmark. Curious, restless, and drawn to anything that takes us outside our comfort zone.

Road around Vietnam and Morocco on 50cc motorcycles for more than 4000km. Surfed and scuba dived in the Philippines and Indonesia. Somewhere between those journeys, an idea started to take shape…

We spent years studying, working and building a normal life. But there was something we wanted to do before settling down. So we've decided to leave our jobs, and go fullfill our dreams!

02 / THE JOURNEY / NO FIXED FINISH LINE

WE’RE LEAVING SPAIN AND HEADING EAST.

On 1 May, we'll leave Spain by bicycle and start heading towards Asia. We don’t want to plan every kilometre. Borders, landscapes, people and unexpected detours will shape the journey. We don’t know exactly where the road will take us. And that’s the point.
