The meaning of XPLORid

​

Xplore: discovering the world

People, Pets & Planet: help to people, animals and planet, pet sitting

Low carbon: cycling and public transport

Outdoor: being outdoors 24/7

Reconnect: nature and local communities

idworx: the brand of our indestructible bicycles

 

Xid

Xid (“exit”) refers to leaving behind our possessions. No house, kitchen, bed and bathroom of our own. As cycling nomads it's every day a surprise where we end up and we slip back to three basic needs: eating, drinking and sleeping.

Linda

​

A meaningfull life, freedom, nature and sports.
 

I am adventurous and enjoy discovering new things.

​

I like to sing (in the shower) and know a lot of lyrics by heart.

Rather a concert of Coldplay instead of a festival. 
 

I am a go-getter and I love the motto "a deal's a deal". I see a future in a world where we no longer strive for economic growth, but for ecological stability. My old life in sales and commerce does not fit into this picture. The contrast is far too great. In addition to my commitment to Stichting XPLORid, I hope to contribute to an organization that suits me. I'm still searching to find what I am looking for.
 

I focus on sponsor requests, press and social media.

Ben

​

I am calm, (un)patient, sporty, adventurous, enthusiastic, honest, reliable, persistent, tireless, forgetful, slow, naive and not very structured.

 

I have an allergy for the words "you must". I choose my own way, and I'm independent.

 

I love freedom, sports (swimming and cycling), traveling, salsa, exciting stories, playing guitar, John Irving, Quintin Tarantino. 

 

I like white sheets and black coffee. I prefer being in nature and not in a crowded city. I love café De Pieter and swimming pool Jekerdal.

 

I love challenges, good food and of course my mother's apple pie and chicken soup.

​

I focus on navigation and bicycle maintenance.
