Get to know Normand and Hélène Pion of Quebec, Canada, one of our 2025 Global Ambassadors
A little bit about Normand and Hélène in their own words…
Tandemists and full-time cyclo-travellers (6 months and more each year since 2013), Hélène and Normand have accumulated 2,206 overnight trips and over 100,000 km covered by bike in the last 12 years, in about fifty countries. Users of the Warmshowers network since 1999, Normand estimates that more than 500 meetings have been held over the years, all over the world.
Why did you decide to become a Warmshowers Global Ambassador?
I’ve talked about my Warmshowers experiences for 25 years, especially during conferences on my bike trips, through my interactions on French-speaking social networks, and through my travel blogs on Crazyguyonabike ( cgoab.com/rikimiki )
Share a memorable Warmshowers experience with us…
With more than 500 Warmshowers stays over the last 25 years, there are so many unforgettable moments that it is difficult for me to choose only one. Here is a short video of thanks we created for all these exceptional meetings, using francophone music dedicated to hospitality and sharing.
