Bike Travel as a Model to Cultivate Empathy
Roberto Gallegos and Edwin Rutsch

Annika Wachter and Roberto Gallego are founders of Tasting Travels, a project that seeks to promote bicycle travel as a model to cultivate empathy. They have ridden their bicycles from Europe to Australia and beyond.
 

They say, "We are a multicultural couple that decided in 2011 to explore a thin line around the world by bicycle. Our main goal is to promote bike travel as a model to cultivate empathy.... We are moved by the strong believe that bike travel is an excellent way to cultivate empathy in our world, not only towards human beings but to other living species."

 

... bike travel is an excellent way

to cultivate empathy in our world,

not only towards human beings but
to other living species...
