Strangers on Friday, biking buddies by Sunday. 🚲

That's the magic of the Velo Tour Festival: three days of biking, open roads and camping with the kind of people that make you want to do it all over again. 💚

Throwback to my first wild-camping adventure in France last june. 🥾

The Chartreuse really stunned me: every view, every climb, every (quiet) moment. ⛰️

Thanks to the solid guidance of @hikingadvisorbelgium I made it through the 6-day trek feeling proud and grateful. 💪
El Tigre Waterfalls, Monteverde 🇨🇷 An easy-to-access, adventurous 7.5 km loop through Costa Rica’s cloud forest. 💧

Expect lush greenery, hanging bridges & four stunning waterfalls. We hiked it in 2.5 hours, with plenty of stops along the way.

Can only recommend it if you’re headed to Monteverde. 💚

I always wanted to try bikepacking, so I started small—B&Bs, a four-day ride. And I loved it. It felt like a whole new kind of adventure. 🤠

Not just getting from A to B, but everything in between—the detours, the quiet moments, the little wins. 

One of the first things I realized? It’s not a race. Slowing down made the trip so much more enjoyable. It’s amazing what you notice when you’re not rushing. 🚴‍♀️

One thing I’d do differently? Plan better. I missed a stunning viewpoint just 5km off my path. But one thing I got right? Avoiding city centers during traffic. Nothing kills the vibe like fighting for space with impatient cars. 🧭

And then, of course—rest. Your legs do all the work. Give them a break. 🦵

Lastly, if you’re thinking about bikepacking, don’t splurge on gear just yet. Borrow, buy second-hand, and figure out what works for you first. ♻️

At the end of the day, it is all about the experience. You learn, adapt, and—most importantly—enjoy the ride. ✨
