We are Agathe and Florent, two french students brought together by our shared values and passions: wild, sport, travel, low-tech, solid toothpaste... but above all, cycling. We decided to take advantage of our gap year and embark on the biggest adventure of our lives: a 5-month tour of Europe by bike !

This trip is for us a way to slow down our bustling lives, to reconnect with wild and people, to challenge ourselves and perhaps to help us find our path.

Both curious and craving to see the world, we would be delighted to meet you and share our biketrip experience with you.

A little more about ourselves :

Agate is the fun & energy lead, responsible for motivating the team through fog and rain. Her goal: climb as many meters of elevation as possible and meet as many wild animals as she can.

Florent is the logbook manager, documenting the whole journey, but also the rational decision-maker, to make sure we don't end up on the moon or at the bottom of the ocean ! His goal: to meet Swifties across Europe and collect as many stickers as possible.
