Thank you for giving us a push to life through pedalling…it’s been an enriching experience and a journey of a lifetime.
I had a wonderful time and am full of appreciation for the way you took care of each one of us ❤️🙏It will take a few days to calm down and assimilate our experiences which will then become a lifetime memory!
I don’t even have the right words to express the emotions I felt in the last 15 days. The work you do is surreal, lead by example. Going on this trip has been a life-transforming experience. I feel extremely rich at the soul level.
