17 days. 1,400 km. 14 days on the bikes. 🚴♀️🚴♂️
We cycled from Romania 🇷🇴 through Bulgaria 🇧🇬 to Greece 🇬🇷, all the way to the beautiful island of Samothraki — and then back home.
Two bikes, two huge 50L backpacks, panniers, endless roads, mountain villages, rain, ferry rides, beaches, cherries picked straight from the trees 🍒 and plenty of unexpected adventures.
At one point, the rain caught us and we stopped inside a tunnel to change clothes… only to be spotted by the tunnel monitoring operator! 😂 A few kilometers later, we were stopped and reminded that camping/changing clothes in a tunnel is, apparently, not allowed. 😅
We loved Bulgaria, the mountain villages, the people, the quiet roads and all those beautiful places that felt completely off the map.
And then came Samothraki. 🌊⛰️
We took the ferry to the island, went hiking up Mount Fengari, and even had a little dog follow us almost all the way to the summit. 🐕❤️
Supermarkets, occasional pizza and beer stops, thousands of pedal strokes, tired legs, beautiful landscapes and a ridiculous amount of cherries. 🍒
This was just the beginning of our 1,400 km cycling adventure. ❤️
