Howdy, I am Brenda, and welcome to my corner of the internet.

I am Ugandan and was born on 4th of February 1995. With an academic background in Biomedical Engineering, I have had the priviledge to study and live in Uganda, Europe, USA and the UK. Coming from a patriarchal society, I started this blog to empower women to push themselves beyond their boundaries to achieve dreams beyond what society dictates as possible.

In Kampala Uganda, Cycling like science is largely male dominated so much so that, it is considered a taboo for women to ride bicycles. How did I know? Well, when COVID was announced as a global pandemic in 2020, cycling was the only efficient way I could get anywhere I needed to be within the boundaries of Kampala. The more I biked, the more I enjoyed doing it and the more corners I hit while in the city. But so did the reactions from the people I met along the way. And there, the love for story telling began. I decided to use this platform to challenge the status quo and also inspire women to pursue their dreams regardless of the challenges they face. Through my cycling stories, I keenly provide a vivid picture of what it feels like to be a female cyclist on the streets of Kampala.

When I traveled abroad for further studies, I experienced a great deal of cultural shocks I couldn’t help but blog about. Further more, traveling abroad has been such a game changer as it has broadened my perspective on what content I can share on this website.

As I grow through my experiences, I have come to realise that I not only want to share my travel experiences, but also use this space to share tools and practices that I have used to transform the relationship I have with my body, nature and the bike.

In the end, I hope that this space helps women find solutions to challenges around the relationship they have with their bodies. Through my content, I want to inspire women to navigate womanhood with grace and find balance through movement and nature.

Xoxo,

Brenda
