About

"The Big Trip" was initially a name given to this site due to the fact that I was constantly dreaming of doing a big trip on a bicycle. I met my big love Johanna and together we left Sweden for a bike trip around the world.

The trip ended in catastrophe after 9 months of biking through South America. We were hit from behind by a motorist driving way to fast. Johannas life ended instantly and I survived with traumatic brain injury.

That's why this site is now about the big trip of life. A tribute to my dear Johanna and to the very phenomenon of human powered mobility. On this site I will do my best to spread inspiration and tell you the tale of me and my ambitions to stand up strong for the only true vehicle of freedom, the bicycle. I am the only living victim of our dream and this is my testimony that I hope will inspire you to find the happiness that a bicycle can give no matter if you intend to cross continents or the distance from your home to work.

Be brave. Live. Be one less car out there.
