“Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta

Not chasing destinations.
Chasing the feeling of getting there.

We’re Agata and Joris – two riders exploring the world on two wheels. From remote off-road tracks to long-distance journeys across continents, we share real stories, tested gear and the kind of adventure you can’t always plan.

Women Only Nepal Trip Day 2: Bandipur - Kushma A Women Only Nepal Trip 
Day 2: Bandipur - Kushma

Alarm set for 5:45 — because who can miss a Himalayan sunrise, right?
The viewing point was already buzzing with people, but I managed to catch the first golden rays over (supposedly) Manaslu before the clouds rolled in and wrapped everything in fog.
By the time we started riding, the sky had cleared — perfect timing.

The small roads quickly turned into proper rocky and muddy twisty tracks. Finally, some real riding! 😉
And the scenery… unreal. Terraced rice fields, banana palms, and snow-covered peaks in the background. Sometimes they felt too close to even notice — I had to “zoom out” my vision just to take it all in.

Riding through Pokhara was another story. Let’s just say… “traffic rules” are a flexible concept here. 😅 But once you go with the flow, it actually becomes fun — chaotic harmony at its best.

There were also faster sections and twisties . I might’ve leaned a little too much at one point and scraped my left boot on the tarmac. 

We finished the day navigating through narrow village streets with the sun blinding us from the front — could barely see a thing. And then came the highlight: crossing a 230-meter hanging bridge over the river to reach our resort for the night. What a finish!

Tomorrow’s menu: zipline, swing, or bungee jump (yes, seriously 😅). Or maybe just chilling before the next leg of the journey. Either way — the adventure continues!

Women Only Nepal Trip Epilogue Back home, shoes c Women Only Nepal Trip
Epilogue

Back home, shoes cleaned (almost), laundry done (almost), and the dust of Mustang still somewhere in my nose.

When I think back to the past days, it’s hard not to smile. Nepal gave us EVERYTHING - chaos, beauty, dust, laughter, and the kind of silence that only mountains can create.

We rode through places where time slows down, the surroundings make you literally breathless, and where roads sometimes decide they no longer want to be roads. We crossed suspension bridges, dodged cows, chased sunrises, got caught in dust storms, and learned that in Nepal, a “highway” isn’t the road that makes you go faster - it’s just literally high.

There were moments of pure joy - coffee at 4,000 meters with Annapurna in front of us, street dancing in Bandipur, discovering the perfect apple pie (still no final verdict on the ranking), and laughing until our helmets fogged up.

And then there were the small things - losing my earring, Kindle, and maybe a bit of our voices from all the dust and laughter - that somehow made the story even better.

The group? A bunch of badass women from all corners of the world who, in just a few days, became a team. Supportive, funny, unstoppable. There’s something powerful about sharing a road like this - it connects people in ways no meeting room or social media chat ever could.

It wasn’t the trip of a lifetime - it was one of many that remind me why I keep chasing new roads. Because every ride, every country, every adventure adds another layer to who we are.

Nepal - you were dusty, wild, chaotic, kind, and unforgettable.
Now… where to next?

Women Only Nepal Trip Day 9: Tatopani - Pokhara Women Only Nepal Trip
 Day 9: Tatopani - Pokhara

Last day on the bikes. It’s true — good things always end too soon. 

We rode toward Pokhara, following winding roads of what we like to call adventure asphalt — half-smooth, half-broken, always entertaining. Between traffic jams, trucks, and buses (which clearly have the right of the bigger one 😅), there was never a dull moment.

Halfway through, we stopped at a 344-meter suspension bridge — couldn’t resist crossing it there and back for one last shot of adrenaline and laughter.

A few more hours and we were rolling into Pokhara, weaving through the city traffic like locals. It’s amazing how fast we’ve adapted to the “anything goes” driving style here — horns, chaos, and somehow perfect flow.

Back at the hotel, we finally slowed down. A dip in the pool with a mountain view, golden light on the peaks, and that quiet satisfaction of a journey well ridden. In the evening, we strolled by the lake, soaking in the relaxed Pokhara vibe.

Our farewell dinner was the perfect ending — great food, cold beer, even cake(!), and live music drifting from the terrace next door. The laughter, stories, and clinking glasses said it all — what a ride this has been.

Tomorrow we fly home, but part of us will definitely stay here — somewhere between the dust, the peaks, and the endless curves of Nepal.
