CURRENT MISSION

See the world and all the beautiful places it has to offer, and meet amazing people along the way

ABOUT ME

Where to start... well, we love to travel. :)
We are both 28 years old and from Munich, Germany. We just love to explore new places, meet new people along the way and discover more of a country than the guide book shows. We are pretty uncomplicated and don't need any fancy stuff to be happy during our travels.
Svenja is a high school teacher (teaching English and Geography) and Andrew is about to finish his Master's degree in computer science.
When we travel, we enjoy meeting locals, trying the locals foods and maybe attempt to cook them ourselves with the help of our hosts. We usually opt for the outdoor experiences rather than the typical "sightseeing". (e.g. our latest adventure included cycling down the east coast of Taiwan.)
During the six years since we've met, the countries we have discovered together include India, Sri Lanka, Morocco, USA, Maldives, Taiwan and a bunch of countries in Europe. (And of course we have both travelled many more countries before we met on our own. ;) )
