MUNDOLOGIA: Freiburg – Cape Town

Description

20,000 km cycling through Africa
22 countries – 22 insights A young woman, a bicycle – and the African continent. Wiebke Lühmann cycled alone from Freiburg to the Cape of Good Hope: 20,000 kilometers, 22 countries, and 430 days full of surprises, doubts, encounters, and inner change. At MUNDOLOGIA, she shares her captivating live report of the unvarnished stories behind the seemingly perfect Instagram journey, which was followed online by over 260,000 people. Her talk is a plea for courage, honesty, and the power of self-efficacy. It begins with a broken plan: instead of starting with her partner, Wiebke begins with a friend – but soon she is traveling alone. Already on the first night in the Sahara, her bike is stolen. In Liberia, she celebrates her 30th birthday alone in the jungle, while her twin sister toasts in Germany. Yet, it is precisely in these moments that something grows within her. With impressive images, previously unreleased videos, and deeply personal experiences, she shows how her perspective on freedom, safety, and community has changed during her journey. Wiebke's journey tells of a female perspective, doubts and courage, letting go and starting anew. And of the unexpected support she found in a Congolese monastery. "From Freiburg to Cape Town" is not a hero's story – but an invitation to see the world with your own eyes. Real, honest, encouraging.
