VEGAN SWISS BICYCLE TRAVELLER

Welcome to my Website

I am Marc, a vegan from Switzerland. I love travelling by bicycle, spending the nights in a tent and exploring challenging areas using my own muscle power.

My travel life was interrupted in July 2020 when I suddenly and unexpectedly started suffering from (most likely) an autoimmune encephalitis.

Fortunately, my brain recovered fully and surprisingly quickly from this disease. Due to further health issues, I received hip prostheses in early summer 2022 and shoulder prostheses in spring 2023.

Over the past few years, I have come up with many ideas for short trips, longer journeys, and various expeditions. Thankfully, my health is now good enough that, starting in summer 2025, I can attempt to realize some of these planned projects. I am really looking forward to being out there again and sharing my experiences.

I hope you get inspired and I motivate you to go out and explore this beautiful world either by bicycle or by foot – while completely avoiding the most environmentally harmful means of transport: the airplane.
