Good morning, its been a while since I wrote anything here.
Im sat at home at 10am on a Tuesday morning feeling more than a little jealous.
We had 2 visitors that came and stayed with us for a few days in PP, then, after Zarah and I went to Kep with work they followed on and stayed there for a day or two too.
Ben and Gen are cyclists and are 10 months into a world tour.
They estimate that they will be traveling by bicycle for another 2 years before getting back home to Quebec in Canada.
We met through a website called Warm Showers, which I joined after finishing my own bicycle tour from England to Gibraltar, and as I watched them rolling away this morning, down the road towards the sea, I was reminded of my own promise to myself that I would do another, longer, cycle tour someday.
Warm Showers is a meeting place for cycle tourists who are either: traveling (guests), or, at home (hosts). The idea is that traveling cyclists can contact hosts through the website and arrange to stay with them for a night or two in their own homes, all arrangements are informal and negotiable to suit both host and guest. If you are a cyclist and can offer of a place to sleep, a meal, and the most elusive luxury – a warm shower – to touring cyclists, then that is all that is needed to join Warm Showers, and in return the host gets to hear of the travels and see the photos of people who are doing something quite remarkable.
They have a website for their journey which you can see here.
