Pure adventure! Oum Bunreth is travelling from Germany to Cambodia - on his motorbike. He makes frequent stops along the way and collects money for our five children's hospitals, among other things, on his "Ride for tomorrow" tour. The Cambodian appreciates what our foundation is doing for his country: all sick and injured children receive high-quality medical care free of charge, regardless of their position in society or their income.
The project takes almost four months and takes him through France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Croatia, Turkey, Iran, China and Thailand, among other countries. This week, Oum Bunreth, who is President of the BMW Club Cambodia, met our Foundation Board President Philip Robinson in Zurich and went on a motorbike tour over our mountain passes with Foundation Board member Christian Schibler.
Another aim of his trip is to present Cambodia as an endearing and vibrant country for tourists: "We have an incredible history, culture and beauty." He hopes to inspire people to explore his home country and its hospitality for themselves.

What stands out is how the effort connects people globally to a local mission, showing that compassion can travel across borders. It’s not just about the kilometers ridden, but about the lives touched through advocacy and fundraising.
And when I want to balance that inspiring humanitarian reading with something playful, I enjoy Slope game. Its fast pace and unpredictability make it a refreshing way to reset.
Really inspiring story—covering 25,000 km across so many countries for a good cause like this is genuinely impressive. In moments of downtime, I also find myself thinking about simple ways to unwind, and something like the Stickman Hook game can be a quick break between everything. It’s just a light, fun experience that feels surprisingly relaxing after a busy day.
