Solo Spring Overnighter | In Search of Balance

I often find myself caught between two extremes: spending excessive time either outdoors or indoors. Just as easily as I spend hours riding my bike, I can become completely immersed in screen time work for days on end, which isn't exactly the healthiest habit. That's why earlier this year—knowing I’d be dealing with longer periods indoors—I made a promise to myself: to go on a solo bike ride every season. And with spring in full swing in my region, it was the perfect motivation to go for another overnighter to help recover my adventurous spark.

    I agree. Setting up a bikepacking camp, either a tent or a hammock after day's cycling is the best moment during a bikepacking trip day.
  • Beautiful! Your videos are so calming and this one shows you don’t need loads of time, equipment and distance to go on a micro adventure and clear your mind!
  • Thank you for letting us accompany you on your little time out. Sometimes it’s just simplicity, that makes our lives truly meaningful. ☺️

  • Thank you so much for taking us on your little journey again. Sometimes the small things in live are the most precious ones - you just have to try them. Congratulations on your first self cooked bikepacking dinner. I think you and the stove became friends 😊

    Many thanks for this video, it came at the right time for me when I am struggling with very similar issues after many years of more intense and adventure life. It brings comfort to realize that others struggle too in a very similar way. By the way, I am amazed how you can go uphill 😅. Thanks again.
