We often hear people say: "Never look backwards!" I don't agree at all. Looking back we can see things from another perspective and we can realize how many things we have been able to overcome. I do it often and I did it also riding my bicycle: I stopped and looked behind me "Wow but it's wonderful! I was right there!" or "Ohlala! and this too has passed". I noticed things I couldn't see if I stayed focused on what was ahead of me (the future). Looking back (in my past) I could see everything in a more COMPLETE way. Look backwards and you can always be a little bit proud of yourself.

Armenia has been a very pleasant discovery. Here I was about one month on the road. My first trip on a bicycle. My biggest step in the unknow outside my comfort zone. The best step ever. After one month I was already amazed ... amazed by wonderful people, places and by myself: I was doing it! Alone. Many laugh and tears of joy, and also of sadness ... Impossible at that moment imagine how many things were waiting for me ... It has been an incredible trip not only for my body but also for my soul and today I'm feeling a sort of melacholy. Symphony of stones, Garni, Armenia. #adventurecycling #bicycletrip #adventurelife #bicycletouring #solofemalecyclist #bicycletour #cyclingtour #bicycle #surly #Armenia #Garni #worldbybike #cyclingadventures #journeyofsoul

It doesn't matter what is your plan, there will be always somebody telling you that it's impossible ... Smile, thank him/her cordially and keep going on your path ... you will be surprised at how many things are actually possible.

Right now, a year ago (December 2017), I was about to cross the border between Argentina and Chile ... endless km against the wind, nights in beautiful forests in a desolate land, but still full of history ... a sad history. .. Not only the landscape around me filled me with wonder, but also my little Dimitri ... I would never have imagined that a kitten would adapt so well to a bicycle trip ... will it behave equally well on the next trip? ... waiting for 2019 ...

October 2017, Kyrgyzstan. This became my new riding setting: my loaded bicycle Bicio, a bottle with some milk and a kitten. Since that day we became inseparable. In order to keep the little cat, I changed COMPLETELY my trip-plan and we moved to Argentina, were we rided about 6000 km in 7 months between Argentina, Chile and Europe ... we rocked the road my little companion 😎🐯#adventurecat #adventurecats #cyclingtouring #adventurecycling #cyclingwithcat #adventurelife #womantraveler #solowomantraveler #adventurewomen

I'm feeling very privileged when I can enjoy places like this just outside my house's door ... even better if in good company.

Often (practically always) people ask me where was the most beautiful place of my trip ... it's not just about the beauty of the places, but above all, about emotions ... the strong ones ... that remain well impressed in the mind ... well, the Peak Lenin base camp (Kyrgyzstan) was a great combination of nature's beauty and adrenaline. I'm also missing this kind of "unexpected situations".

Last night in Tajikistan (Pamir) ... more than one year ago ... but it's like it happened yesterday. I miss quite a lot that sense of total freedom immersed in the wild, arid and inhospitable nature ... pure wonder, pura vida. To all the cycling-friends that are up there right now: Enjoy guys!! #cyclingmemories #missingthefreedom #cyclingadventures #adventurecycling

I was born in the south region of Switzerland, this means that I have to cross the Alps to reach my home ... yes I already crossed many passes but still one is missing: the Gotthard pass. Gömmer! 😎🚵 Gotthard region, Switzerland #cyclinghome #bicycletrip #bicycletouring #adventurelife #adventurecycling #womanonwheels #womantraveler #solotravel
