Ever dreamt of dropping everything to cycle across continents? Meet Yann Tourman, who did just that, embarking on an epic bicycle adventure in 2018 that's still rolling! Beginning with a spontaneous decision in New York to bicycle to the tip of South America, Yann's journey has been anything but conventional. Hear his astonishing tales of a Canadian winter crossing (all the way to Vancouver Island!), a mid-winter hitchhike to Alaska, and a nine-month zigzag across the USA before heading south. Although COVID interrupted him in Costa Rica, four years later he restarted his trip right where he left off. Now cycling in South America, Yann is once again relying on the profound kindness of friends and strangers, his philosophy of trusting the world, and his desire to give back through volunteering. This is a story of resilience, resourcefulness, and human connection on the open road that will inspire your own adventurous spirit.
