We are Eva and Miguel.
In June 2016, we set off on our recumbent bicycles to explore part of the world. At the time, all we knew was that we were trying to make it to Portugal from our home in Geneva, Switzerland.
One year and one day later, we cycled up to our front door again. We had made it to Portugal, and even much further.

About Next Stop: Where?
Currently, Next Stop: Where? is about our journeys with recumbent bikes, mainly our one-year trip from June 2016 to June 2017.
In fact, Next Stop: Where? v1.0 was born many years ago. More precisely in 2009, when we left our home and jobs for the first time. We only had a small backpack, a train ticket to Vienna, and a visa for Russia. We had no idea where that journey would take us. Very often, we would get up in the morning not knowing where we would be that night.
Hence the name of the blog: Next Stop: Where?
You can read all about that journey here.
