One Year on a Bike: From Amsterdam to Singapore | Gestalten

Regular price $99.00

Inspiring, uplifting, and instructive, this book is much more than beautiful photography, and Martijn Doolaard's self-filming of the odyssey became a true feel-good film, winning multiple several awards. Great book! 

Martijn Doolaard traded the convenience of a car and the distractions of daily life for a cross-continental cycling journey: a biped adventure that would take him from Amsterdam to Singapore. Leaving behind repetitive routines, One Year on a Bike indulges in slow travel, the subtlety of a gradually changing landscape, and the lessons learned through traveling. Venturing through Eastern European fields of yellow rapeseed to the intimate hosting culture and community in Iran, One Year on a Bike is a vivid chronicle of what can happen when the norm is pointedly replaced by exceptional self-discoveries and beautiful sceneries. Doolaard shares the gear and knowledge that made his trip possible alongside the passionate curiosities that served as his impetus.
