Sandra & Fiona | @adv_travelbug

The travel bug must have bitten hard, otherwise Fiona and Sandra wouldn‘t have simply swapped their well-paid jobs in the City of London for a life on the road. They have not regretted their decision. As ADV Travel Bug, the two adventurers travel around the world on their touring enduro. And it is precisely where other travellers stop that things get interesting for the tough ladies. Malaria, harassment by the authorities or deep muddy tracks - nothing can stop ADV Travelbug. New encounters with wonderful people are the best reward for the hardships of being on the road.

JB is a French long-term traveller, photographer and videographer. For over seven years, he has been exploring the world in a 4x4 truck – from Europe to the Caucasus and the deserts of Arabia. What drives him are not only landscapes, but above all encounters with people and cultures off the beaten track.

Since 2024, he has been expanding his travels with a Yamaha Ténéré 700 World Raid – equipped with Touratech accessories. More than 10,000 kilometres later, one thing is clear to JB: motorcycle touring offers more flexibility, real closeness to people and an intense sense of adventure. His next stop? France, before heading off again in search of a new adventure – perhaps to Pakistan, Ladakh or back to the Middle East.
