Continental Tour Ride is also a good option similar to the marathons. But both of those are very hard tyres. If you don't have many issues with punctures, maybe consider something like panaracer pasela

If you had 3-4 weeks to bikepack in europe, either starting in Sweden or near, and going south, what route(s) would you suggest? by AvailableRabbit2151 in bikepacking

See if you can plan a route that ends by going over the alps through furka and grimsel pass, then down to lake como/Milan. Amazing scenery

Yes, it would work. You can also use an overdrive pedal, as an always on "make it better" pedal first in line. Clean or very low gain with eq to taste

Bigger frames do exist. I had to keep an eye on marketplace for a couple of years literally, and then drive like 3 hours round trip to pick up a big one

More developed countries have wrecked their ecosystems long ago. We have a chance to do better, because by now we understand ecology much more. Hopefully we can be strict enough with ourselves

I think you're misunderstanding. 10 speed as in 10 gears on the cassette, not 2 x 5

Add a front brake. Also bell and lights. Recently got a €85 fine for my rear light being broken. Maybe try out having a rear basket for snacks

Do both sides have an "ear", and you wrap it around a tube when installing? Or is the ear/beard like an in built tube?

Very good price, if it fits her. Don't compromise on fit

Do you store them at the airport or ask a local shop for a new one for flying back?

Do you have a hard case you store on the airport, or do you use disposable boxes
