Mark: I was born at the 7th March 1996 in Hamburg, but I grow up in Bargteheide. There I visit the elementary school and the secondary school.
In case to finance my journey round the world I'am currently working for the diplomatic sales program of a german automaker. After my return I want to study political science in Hamburg.

Christopher: My Name is Christopher, but everyone calls me by my nickname "Tito". I am 20 years old and I grow up in a small village called Sandesneben. It is very close to Bargteheide. My favorite hobby is photography
but I also enjoy cooking.

Our first destination will be Cape Town wherefrom we will travel through South Africa, Namibia, Botsuana and Zimbabwe. Later we will reach Hong Kong and Bali amongst others.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mark: My favorite band is montreal, a german punk band. The Dark Knight from Christopher Nolan is my favorite movie, because of Heath Ledgers role as the Joker. Another movie a like is Prestige, also from Christopher Nolan, because of the great plot twist at the end of the movie. I like to read the bartimeus quatrology written by Jonathan Stroud, because the monologues of the protagonist are very sarcastic and funny.

Christopher: Basically I like every kind of music! I'am a huge fan of Metallica and Iron Maiden but also I have a passion for Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande and Blink 182. My favorite movie is "Hateful 8" From Quentin Tarantino. Highly recommended. The best books are from Tom Clancy, his books are super detailed

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mark: In 2015 I traveled with my family through the USA. There we drove for five weeks through California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona and New York City. I would say the greatest experience there was the Grand Canyon. At the Day we visit this giant national park you can saw a great thunderstorm on the other side of the ditch. That looks very stunning, because it seems that the thunderstorm was close to us, but in fact it was far away.

Christopher: I made a roadtrip through Scandinavia with friends. For me, the most stunning were the fjords. But I also had a lot of fun driving the serpentines. Unfortunately, I have not seen any moose
