After two years of pedaling, we have compiled the highlights of our trip so far. Due to the risk of bias, we have excluded the first few days in Switzerland from the competition😉. The lists are by no means complete, we have certainly forgotten some things or would not make the same selection another time. Perhaps our hit list was also influenced by the fact that here in Southeast Asia we really miss the snowy mountains😊.
