In April 2021, we set off on our first joint cycling trip around the world. Since then, our hearts have been set on traveling by bike \u2764\ufe0f.  <\/p>\n\n<p>We met over 9 years ago and since then we go together through thick and thin. We both grew up in beautiful Aargau, Nicole in Fricktal and Beni in Wettingen.<br\/>Our professional backgrounds also complement each other perfectly. As a computer scientist and self-proclaimed all-rounder, Beni has a handle on everything related to technology and electronics, while Nicole, a trained medical practice assistant, can patch us up when we have minor injuries.<\/p>\n\n<p>This blog is not only to keep family and friends up to date on our adventures, but also to give others the opportunity to be informed and inspired. That&#8217;s why we will try to share our most important experiences in the planning and later on the trip with you in the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/kommt-zeit-kommt-rad.ch\/en\/tips-tricks\/\">Tips &amp; Tricks<\/a>&#8221; section.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Life is like riding a bicycle.
