Maxime and Lisa are young French couple. They are ready to travel across China from Beijing to Yunnan Province on a tandem bicycle (双人自行车). They have two main aims and one of them is that they want to encourage green travel1it.
Maxime, 26, works helping farmers raise their cows, while his wife Lisa, 26, is a teacher. The two also like sharing their travel2on Facebook. "We choose a tandem bicycle because it makes it easier to communicate with each other about interesting people and things we come across during the journey. Besides, bicycling is healthier. And it's a cheaper and more environment-friendly（环保的） way of traveling than3cars, motors and so on," the couple said. As for the other purpose of their journey, the two said they wanted to get people's good ideas on topics such as health, economy and politics. When they were asked4they chose to visit China, they said it was because they often talked about its long history and beauty and how much the country is competitive in the world.
"We know China is a country with a large population and will be the leader of the economy （经济）around the world in the future. We want to get a5understanding of the country and its people. We love the country," they said. The couple will be on their journey to China soon. We hope they can make more people further6China by sharing what they see and hear on the way. Meanwhile, we hope they enjoy their travel in China.
