Interview β solo female cyclist. Born in March in the Netherlands, Cindy is a curious active contemporary nomad who needs nature to connect with, people to interact with and animals to make the world a complete pallet of beauty. I have cycled about 23, kilometer so far. This is my first cycle trip and I started in the Netherlands in May Why are you going solo? If there was the perfect partner for you, would you consider sharing your adventure?
I am going solo because I have always traveled solo. It could very well be that on your own impressions are undiluted. No one is disturbing my feelings with their comments or thoughts. Perhaps I am quickly bored of guys I fall in love with.
Perhaps I find it easier to be alone too, as being with someone most of the times requires compromises or adjustments. The older I get, the less flexible I tend to be towards lovers. It takes very little for a partner to keep the balance I have, thus keeping my contentment. Most guys want to give me a lot, like giving me the feeling as if they have to protect meβ¦.
First I cycled a few weeks with an American guy who became a temporarily partner but because of too many compromises and too big a difference in approach to life in general and cycling in particular, I soon wished to be on my own again. One would cook me , one would gather all the vegetables, one would cut the veggies and one would relax. It worked out perfectly well. The secret was none of us had the feeling to be compromising.
What do you like most while being on the road? The simplicity. Relying on the nature and people. There is hardly any disturbance of unsettling needs like contracts, duties, bills or payments. With a few countries as exceptions for example India you only need to focus on getting from A to B through an abundance of nature.
