About Me

We, Achim (27m) and Tabea (27f) are currently traveling in a Caravan
through Russia. We dont need accomodation, but would love to meet locals, learn Russian language and culture.

To get to know locals and not only to see the landscape slide by.

- having slept through nights without darkness in Tromsø
- Seeing the Böög's head explode in Zürich
- Lived and worked in India for 3 months, traveled it for 1 month
- The drowning of Ganesha the Indian god with an elephant face. party of PhD students in Gujarati: traditional dances, colour powder pattern laying, powder throwing, etc in a modern way with slight western nuances due to their youth which made it even more relatable for me
- climbing the million stairs up to the northern holy temple area of the Jains: Palitana
