About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in our sails. To DREAM, DISCOVER and EXPLORE....

ABOUT ME

We are definitely extraordinary couple ;) :P We got married aged 22 - high school sweethearts ;) but we actually made out in London, where we lived for the past 5 years. We are soul mates. We are sharing our passions and interests and, among the others, we love traveling!

We are budget travelers and we like to consider ourselves as anti-tourists. We don't often go to touristy-pay-for-places, we prefer to wander around the city or the area and take lots of pictures (like we did in Venice walking in some minor tiny streets and missing most of the famous places to be seen ;P , however we didn't miss going in to the Louvre or on the top of Eiffel Tower and we don't regret it :P :)

PHILOSOPHY

"What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" (unless it kills you...)
Nietzsche

"Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty"
Socrates

"If you don`t like something, change it. If you can`t change it, change your attitude. Don`t complain.
Maya Angelou

"Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction."
Antoine de Saint Exupéry

"I know that I am intelligent, because I know that I know nothing."
Socrates

"Take risks: If you win, you will be happy; if you lose you will be wise"
Unknown

"Well I woke up this mornin', Rainbows filled the sky, And there was God, Tellin' me, "Everythings gonna be alright"."
Jack Johnson

“When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
Paulo Coelho

"The human wisdom is madness in the eyes of God. But if we listen to the child who lives in our soul, our eyes will grow bright."
Paulo Coelho

"Write on the sand what you give, engrave in the rock what you get from the others."
Frederik Ozanam

"And now here is my secret, a very simple secret; it is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye."
Antoine de Saint Exupéry
