After I finished high school in 2008 I went backpacking in Australia for about 6 months. All by myself, but I was never alone and I loved it! I worked on horse farms, wildlife sanctuaries and in hospitality and I've learned so many things I can't even explain. After that I studied Ecology & Wildlife in the Netherlands, but with internships at a great variety of conservation and ecotourism projects around the world. Then my partner and I got the unique opportunity to start working at an Eco Lodge with Game Reserve in South Africa. These 6 years of hands-on management experience made it possible for us to move to Malawi now to start developing our own ecofriendly tourism business.

It started as curiosity, I love meeting new people!

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Getting up very early every day and watching the sunrise from a speedboat on the ocean surrounding Tenerife, Canary Islands, before jumping into the water with a GoPro to get footage of the wales and dolphins was incredibly amazing. In the afternoons we would analyze all collected data in the office of this unique conservation project.
