Into the Wind, Chasing My Shadow Judith Ypeij

Ever since she was a young girl Judith Ypeij was intrigued by the USA. In 2006 she finally decided to give up everything in The Netherlands and cross the United States by herself. It became a bicycle ride from Florida to California. During her trip she turned out to be one of the few who rode the route from east to west, into the wind. She had to deal with steep hills, great ranges in temperature and a limited budget but thanks to the limitless hospitality of the Americans she encountered during her trip it became an experience of a lifetime.
