Hi There! This is Mari (25) and I'm from the Netherlands. I love nature and animals and therefore sustainability is a very important topic in my life. Furthermore, I like exploring new countries and last year I lived in Bolivia for a couple of months. Next summer I will be closer to my home: Germany! My boyfriend and I will explore his country and check out the nature, the castles, the food and everything along the way! Cannot wait for our roadtrip :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A skydiving course, which was so cool :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Travel as sustainably as you can and only if you really have a good reason to go travelling. Personally I do not understand why people take the plane just to be somewhere for a couple of days. How are you supposed to really get to know a culture? The people? Not worth the CO2 emissions. And if shopping is the reason.. argh!
