From my home town in the Netherlands to Rome (2.088km)

A few weeks back i completed my first ever solo bikepacking trip from my home town of Amersfoort in the Netherlands to Rome. It took me about 4 weeks and 3 days. Doing 2.088km of total distance and 19.110m of total elevation spreaded across 28 tours.
Along the way i camped at camp sites, wild camped or stayed in a hostel when in a big city. It has truly been some of the best weeks of my life enjoying the feeling of being truly free and independent. Met so many cool people all in their own adventures and made some good friends along the way. It wasn't always fun or easy but thats part of the adventure. Also going solo it can get a bit lonely but that aslo encourages to go out there be open and meet new people. In the future i will definitely go on a big bikepacking adventure again, although i might use a more off road capable bike that time.
