关于我

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring the southeastern part of Europe

ABOUT ME

We're longtime nomads, doing our best to mimimize working and maximize living. We met traveling in Colombia 6 years ago and have made time and freedom a priority over money ever since.

We will be travelling in Romania, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Albania and Montenegro for the next little while, hoping to meet local open-minded people, eat typical food and learn about the cultures. The opportunity to live as a human being rather than a human doing is something that we are thankful for everyday.

PHILOSOPHY

These five men said it beautifully:

"Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you should set up a life you don't need to escape from" -Seth Godin

"There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living" -Thoreau

"The secret of happiness is freedom. The secret of freedom is courage"
-Thucydides

"Money often costs too much" -Emerson

"Live as if you were living for the second time and had acted as wrongly the first time as you are about to do now" -Frankl
