Stay strong and so powerful that you tell all your story as upsetting and disappointing that part of it is. You are a great advocate for world travelers
I wasn't expecting that kind of cave man story in "developed" Europe coffee shop or restaurant, how unfortunate. It's 2022 and here we are... Thank you for the video and keep pedaling. :)
@@Neil.C57510 Damn... My gf still goes jogging, but she's also not afraid to call these guys out. I always remind her to take her phone, gives me some peace of mind at least.
i'm glad you decided to post it in the end. You shouldn't be silenced when you want to express things like this. I wish the world was a better place...
So sorry to hear your story about those three Belgian men in the café. The majority of men I (64, German, cycle commuter) know is different. What made me extra mad is the fact that obviously nobody else was in the café to interfere with their impertinent actions, not even the owner or staff. Watching your videos makes me think about packing a bit of stuff on my own bike and start to wherever winds and roads lead me.
live in Belgium and I am ashamed in the place of these simpletons. This should never happen. I hope you still have a positive feeling about Belgium after this terrible experience. Take care and continue to enjoy your beautiful bike rides.
I liked Belgium a lot! Situations like the one I was experiencing happen everywhere and that has nothing to do with the country itself. People in Belgium were friendly af. I'd come back any time!
Hi just think of it this way you’ve probably done more in this journey than they’ve done all their sad lives thanks for all the hard work put into your videos and I hope it’s not long for the next ones. Have a great Christmas and we’ll done 🚴🏽♀️👍
My wife and I love to see your adventures. I am amazed at how much rain you seem to deal with on all these videos! Thanks for all you do. We get to see so many cool places and learn about cycle touring. We are also saddened by your experiences with those knuckle dragging men. What apes. Stay strong and enjoy the new year! Peace Andrew and Cheryl
I'm sitting in my kitchen looking out the widow at another dreary Illinois winter. It's -9F. Your videos are a little ray of sun light. Thanks! Bon route.
L. , Somewhat surprisingly even as an older male bikepacker I have run into negative ‘locals’ during my 1,000 mi Tour Divide ride. It was as if I was a very unwelcome outsider. One can only ignore such people, and move away at a brisk pace. I am looking forward to your winter pursuits. Happy Holidays 🎉
I am sorry to hear about the harassment you received from those xxx men and those men don't know how to respect women. But I am happy to see that you have returned home to family and friends in germany. All the best in the new year and may all your dreams come true.
Sorry to hear about your troubles at the coffee shop. I wouldh've thought as a moden society we had progressed past that. Enjoy the winter in the Canary Islands.
What a unfortunate situation you've passed man, just unbelivable shitty's like this still happening, I'm glad you back them off. Thanks for sharing I enjoy your videos and the great views you've go to.
Hi thank you for sharing your life with us. My suit case once went to Hanover for a few days, unfortunately I was in the south of Germany. I await eagerly your next video
Merry Christmas cherrio. So sorry that your having negative experiences with men. Feel sorry for them, men that act like generally lack confidence and are unable to converse normally with women. Looking forward to your up coming travels. Hey ho let’s go! 🎄🎄🎄🎄
You go, girl... sad that you've experienced these kinds of aggregation by some lunatics. Brave you and what a trip!! However, you can use welcome to my garden next time for the shelter when you are in Belgium. Cheers!!
I'm based in antwerp and when they call it the bike highway I always laugh. Sure you have noticed standard cycle paths in the Netherlands are way better then our "bicycle highway". It's just ridiculous! Great to have found your channel! Great content!
I'm really sorry to hear that you encounter such men whilst travelling around. It's simply not acceptable behaviour - nobody should have to feel how they no doubt made you feel. I hope the world balances things out and brings some good, kind people to you!
Hello :) I can't stop watching your videos, I love following you arround your travel 😇 But I'm looking for the material you are using to your videos !! Do you have any video about it ? Do you use a gopro or camera ? Only phone ? 🎥🎬 And if you have any app advice for bikes.. I used few apps but to no one is the perfect one ;) see you soon online I hope 🤗
That totally sucks. That is the advantage of being an older female rider. I will not get that same sexual crap. I just started riding at 52. Plus, I'm slightly plump. (that will probably disappear as I ride more). Basically - no one will pay attention to me. (at least they didn't on the 4 day biking trip I did alone this fall.)
i can not support you with manny ! but i watch all your videos and like them...im curently living in stuttgart...i can speake german well!but i can not text in your mother language !:d you make me want to live my dream and just go !!youre an inspiration for so manny !!!!keep doing it !thx 4 your motivational and nice vloging content!!!
Problem is a real gentleman (or person) will leave you alone. It is the a holes who get into peoples faces ruin peoples evenings! Usually involves alcohol in healthy quantities!
Your way of sharing is so real. You come across as a believable person...especially when sharing your rage about the male neanderthals you encountered in the coffee shop. Sucks that women still have to put up with this. I'm a 72 year old male planning my first longish touring run, Chur to Amsterdam. I like the idea of a year of touring Europe but I have 4 darling grandkids and being away a few weeks is all I can stand!
I enjoyed following some of your journey and wish you happy trails in the future. Too bad you had to suffer the encounter with those sleazeballs. Unfortunately, those kinds of guys can be found anywhere. They do need to be taken out back to the woodshed
at 2:27 i didn't know that kind of people exist in this world, when someone stares at you and says something bad about you that's totally unacceptable.😩 So rude they also don't have good manners🤦♂ Anyway sometime I'm also had that problems too but i just keep ignore those bad people because we cannot control their mouth from saying anything they want but if we can that's will be awesome😅😁🙏✌❤ from Malaysia .
Thank you for sharing your adventures. Some day I would love to tour Europe by bike. I apologize for the skumbags that I am sure consider themselves as real men. Being a father of daughters that type of behavior is not acceptable. As us redneck yanks would say "they need to be taken out back and taught some manners".
I find people are out of control in these lately years! I don’t blame you for being passed off! I myself endured assholes like that all my youth! Be safe! Congrats on the 1 year!
Cheerio! Did you ever think of going to Britain? I live in London, which honestly I can't stand!!! I much prefer the countryside. I am trying to get back to cycling, but have had a few injuries, plus the undercarriage is playing up!!!😢😂😅 I am now on my sixth saddle in five years!!!
Das Catcalling wird besser wenn man älter wird denke ich. Ich bin mit Anfang 50 von Bremen nach München mit dem Rad allein gefahren und habe es nie erlebt. Eher besorgte Männer, die mich fragten ob ich keine Angst vor Weirdos hätte. Meine Antwort war dann immer ob ich Angst vor ihnen haben müsste. Und wirklich auch viele nette Männer, mit einem netten Holländer bin ich abends essen gegangen und habe mich toll unterhalten. Auf einem Campingplatz hat mal einer sehr vorsichtig versucht Kontakt herzustellen, wenn ich keine Lust auf ein Gespräch habe sage ich immer sehr bestimmt, dass ich nicht an einer Konversation oder Kontakt interessiert bin. Ich habe insgesamt eine Taktik entwickelt es quasi auszudünsten, wenn ich nicht angesprochen werden will, egal ob Mann oder Frau. Funktioniert fast immer, ist wohl ein Körperspracheding. Soll übrigens überhaupt kein Victim Shaming sein, sondern nur die Hoffnung das Falten und älter werden auch ihr Gutes haben.
Danke dass du deine Erfahrung hier teilst. Körpersprache und ein entschiedenes "ich will grade nicht kommunizieren" helfen teilweise, aber manche Menschen verstehen nicht wann genug ist und manchmal muss ich meiner Wut darüber Raum geben. Mit dem älter werden hab ich noch nicht so viel Erfahrung😅 aber ich freue mich auf entspanntere Tage und hoffe, dass die Welt sich einbisschen ändert.
Sorry you had to go through that... know that there are good men in the world. For all the a-hole men out there, have some respect for our female travelers. Don't be a tool.
What a dreadful experience in that coffee place, disgusting behaviour, by those guys, like they've stepped back a few hundred years in civilisation. I hope you're spared from that in the future, but it worries me that this still exists. On the upside: enjoy your recovery and on to the next adventure !
Pisses me off hearing of the subhuman men pulling that shit. Curious to know if they were Belgium nationals doing that. I lived in Paris and Brussels. Safe travels!
I was in Belgium for six months and I was glad to leave because I found them to be neanderthals and I'm a bloke! I'm sorry that this happened to you and its easy to say now, but fit a camera to your helmet so that you can switch it on if trouble arises. It'd be interesting to see their faces all over UA-cam and see how tough they are? 😏 I once had a French drug addict try and steal my food when I was camping in Belgium and I hit him with a frying pan. I was glad to leave Belgium. I'll never go back. 🙏 🙄
You know, FUCK HEADS are everywhere you least expect them. I think you should carry mace on you at all times and also keep a can of Bear Spray handy. Some MMA fight training might do you some good also. Traveling like you do is so great. I love your life. TAKE CARE 🚴🏽♀️🚴🏽♀️🚴🏽♀️🚴🏽♀️❤️
Sad to hear that story again. It's a shame that a woman alone is not treated the same way as a man. Even that there is a difference ... Hope u dont have to have these encounters anymore.
You are beautiful if you are in the Philippines, Filipino loves pointed nose and blonde hair white complexion and btw Try to visit here you will see how lucky you are, overpopulated poor people more children and traffic

As we can see: Men can be cavemen everywhere in the world. The hertiage of the still ongoing patriachy
Oh it happens more than you think. Whenever my girlfriend goes jogging, she sometimes gets catcalled and even followed by creepy men. It's disgusting.
@@Neil.C57510 Damn... My gf still goes jogging, but she's also not afraid to call these guys out. I always remind her to take her phone, gives me some peace of mind at least.
@@Chase19898 A woman I know was jogging , a man ran ran up behind her and grabbed her breasts
i'm glad you decided to post it in the end. You shouldn't be silenced when you want to express things like this. I wish the world was a better place...
Please post something soon. This is better than anything on Netflix. You have such an adorable personality. So pleasant to watch you❤❤
Ooooh thank you so much! But! Id recommend watching "the Man who wanted to see it all" on netflix. That's the real shit!
She deos have anger issues though.

Enjoy the rest! Thank you for sharing your life and thoughts through good and bad on this long trip!

I'm excited about what's still coming....es was nice to be able to accompany you on your journey.

Good luck with your next trip 👍

I leave your playlist on for my dogs to boost your video count when I leave the house. Besides my dogs like cycling

Nice bike setup. What bike you have? MarryX
This bike is a Giant comax :)
Ich habe nicht gewusst, dass du aus Nannover kommst! Sehr gute Freunde von mir wohnen in Hannover. Ich bin sehr oft da gewesen.
How is it now to be back home?
It was alright, but I am already back on the road :)
I just got a priority 600 .. now I'm itching to do a bike tour ...if u make it to the USA I'll ride with u
amazing video! are you living Hannover ?
No I don't:) I used to live in Stuttgart:)

I hope you have a great xmas
Great job out there! I hate that the men act like idiots sometimes. Stay strong and keep peddling! 💪🚴🏼♀️
Sorry to hear. I love to watch & hear of your adventures, but right now feeling embarrassed to be a man. Look after yourself, be safe, God speed......
Pisses me off hearing of the subhuman men pulling that shit. Curious to know if they were Belgium nationals doing that. I lived in Paris and Brussels. Safe travels!

I just told my wife of your problems and she said, yes, that`s how it is for her too. Sorry.

We makes jokes about belgium and they make jokes with you ;-)
Don't you ever meet amazing people at coffee shops?
