A Wanderlust DIARY
Who is Chistian
Traveling with Christian is not just about the destination. It was about the noise, the laughter, the stories, and the unmistakable presence of a man who embraces life loudly, generously, and without hesitation.
Motorcycles, for Christian, are not just machines but lifelong companions. He leared to ride as a teenager, travelling across France with his Dad and younger brother. He loves his motorbikes deeply—almost, as he would jokingly admit, as much as he loves Linda, his pillion passenger since their early twenties.
Christian and Linda enjoyed motorcyling across Europe for over a decade before shifting to the Middle East where they hung up their boots while raising a family. In 2022, their youngest picked up a helmut and decided to follow in family tradition learning to ride a motorbike in the sand dunes of Dubai. With a sense of permission to get back in the saddle, Christian started training for off-road riding with an Africa Twin and Linda was ready to get back on the road.

DIARY OF A LADY
Who is Linda
Linda loves travel the way some people love music: instinctively, as if movement itself were a form of breathing. Her father and brothers all had bikes. Dad rode a Yamaha back and forth to work at his job at the New Haven port authority. Her brother offered to teach her to ride at sixteen. Quickly landing in the bushes, she never quite got the hang of it and much prefers to watch the scenery go by as a passenger.
Linda is a self-described feminist, she doesn't often let things stand in her way. As a woman who get things done —she is practical, principled, and quietly fierce. Yet on the motorcycle she is content to be the passenger, not out of submission but out of trust, ritual, and the deep companionship of a long marriage.
A career spent between the United Nations, non-profit causes and the private sector, Linda relishes every opportunity to put on her helmut and breathe the open road.
