Episode 117 - Travelling With Nina + Q From Travelling By Pedalling - Holland to Iran, South East Asia + Japan

Hello and welcome to number 117! This week I am joined by Nina and Q, also known as Travelling By Pedalling and these guys have just finished a two-year bikepacking trip! Today we talk about the lead-up to them quitting their jobs in the healthcare sector which took a toll on them during COVID. We then talk through their route from Holland to Iran. Not all plain sailing though as Nina broke her wrist in Austria so they had to postpone the trip during the winter. However, they were back on the road in the Spring and we talk through right up to Iran. Unfortunately, we didn't get time to dig into much of the South East Asia portion of their trip however, there is some excellent chat in there still. We finish in Japan as they took a break from biking due to a few more accidents and instead, they went on a 1000km in Japan. You can check out more on their trip using the links below!Thanks to Laura Hammond for supporting this podcast, she does so by purchasing a membership every month on my Patreon.
