On a Bicycle Made for Two

by Anna Green

When Cambridge graduates Anna and Howard Green were called to missionary work in Nepal, they decided to cycle all the way from their home in south east London - on a bicycle made for two. They took a tent and spares for the bike, and saved valuable packing space by sending ahead twelve sets of spare tyres. There was no room for a stove, and their only luxury was their tiny spranino recorders. The tandem endeared them to almost everybody they met, making for an informative and often hilarious time that enabled them to reflect deeply on the differences between their own beliefs and behaviour and those of the different cultures they encountered. This book combines the thrill of unconventional travel with the authors' own deep Christian faith; it includes a map of the entire route and eight pages of photographs.
