The Journey of My Dreams
Hi! My name is Max, and I’m planning to ride my bike from Helsinki, Finland to Cape Town, South Africa, covering approximately 25,000 km, crossing at least 26 unique countries, and traveling for a year and a half on my bicycle. I began my ride at the start of June 2024, and hope to reach Cape Town by end of 2025.
I’ve been dreaming about this journey for years. What drives me is a deep desire to see more of the rich, colorful, and diverse tapestry of humanity throughout these regions of the world, approach each new day with freedom and curiosity, letting the ride take me places I never could imagine, to pedal into the wind and sleep under the stars, marveling at the wonders of our world, to persevere through the many challenges the ride will pose, and to meet new people, make new friends, and learn all I can from the journey.
I can’t wait to share my experiences, lessons, and stories from the journey here on this site. I hope you’re excited to follow along and join me on this adventure!
