Swedish adventure cyclist, Anders Grandien is currently on a multi-month journey spanning two continents and roughly 23,000 km. Anders set out from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, in early August – with his trusty Soulo – and has been pedaling his way steadily south towards his goal of Ushuaia, Argentina.
While passing through Washington State, Anders stopped by our Seattle office and sat down with our CEO, Petra Hilleberg, for our latest Tent Talk. They discussed his journey so far, the challenges of spending months on the road, his wonderful experiences with the people he meets, and how he uses and carries his Soulo.
