About the Project
We are Xavier & Valeriia and we love two things: travelling and cycling. After our last big cycling trip around Iceland, we are ready to hit the road again. However, this time we plan to step outside our traditional European destinations and experience something different and very exciting.
This is why in March 2020 we put our tremendous tandem in a plane and set off on a new cycling journey around Jordan.
Our goal is to discover Jordan in a slow travel mode and prove that it has much more to offer than Petra and Wadi Rum.
Being slow travel fans, we are convinced that it is the best way to take the most of each destination, make meaningful encounters with interesting people and see the places outside the guidebook while respecting the nature and challenging ourselves.
This is going to be a gorgeous adventure and we would love to share it with as many people as possible. For this, we could use some of your help!

How we can collaborate
What we can offer
Articles about our experience in Jordan: highlighting less common and less touristy places to explore via detailed and SEO-optimized articles on our blog in two languages – English & French.
Promoting Jordan as bicycle-friendly destination: sustainable travelling is the today’s trend we are more than willing to follow and promote.
Reviews of any activities or places of interest: we will be happy to test and to include our impressions in the blog posts about any activity or establishment you would like to highlight. We would keep, however, the editorial choices.
Photo report: producing photographs of any location for your promotional needs. You may check out our most recent posts by visiting our Blog page.
Social Media coverage: promoting Jordan via posts and stories on our social media account on Instagram. We have an active community with a high engagement rate.
How you could help us
Providing us discounted entry tickets or activities: e.g. discounted Jordan Pass.
Assisting us in obtaining the drone permission: we would like to portrait Jordan from above but getting the drone permission is complicated. Therefore, we would be grateful if you could assist us in this matter.
Sharing our posts on your media: our best reward is to be seen. Sharing our posts or tweets would be of an immense help – we can also suggest a takeover of your accounts.
Putting us in contact with anybody who could be potentially interested in collaboration. Whether it’s an accommodation, a restaurant, or an activity, we would be glad to get any contacts.
