About Me
ABOUT US
We are living near to Lake of Constance in a small village and like being in the nature, hiking, riding a bike and growing our own vegetable in the garden. At the moment Serina is cycling to Spain and Patrick is at home.
ABOUT SERINA
After two years of working as a teacher I decided to take a break to cycle to Spain to visit some friends. I’m also looking forward to get to know France and Spain better. At some distances I’m accompanied by friends. I like any kind of sports and building or repairing stuff in the house and garden.
ABOUT PATRICK
open minded plant breeder working for rare vegetable varieties. I grew up at the lake of Constance and spent a year of social service in India after my school. Between my Bachelor in Geoecology in Tübingen and my Master in Plant breeding and seed technology in Hohenheim I cycled 13 months on a tandem cycle with an extra seat for locals "to take a seat" down to India -one of the greatest times in my life as I met so many wonderful people.
Interests
social engagement/projects, nature, other countries and cultures and many more things

SOBRE NOSOTROS
Vivimos cerca del Lago de Constanza en un pueblo pequeño. Nos gusta pasar tiempo en el bosque o las montañas, ir en bici, hacer senderismo y cultivar nuestra verdura. En este momento Serina está de camino a España y Patrick está en casa.
SOBRE SERINA
Después de trabajar dos años de profesora, decidí de tomar una pausa para ir en bici a España. Me gustaría conocer mejor los dos países, España y Francia. A veces unos amigos me acompañan, a veces voy sola. Me gusta practicar todo tipo de deporte y construir cosas en la casa o trabajar en el huerto.
SOBRE PATRICK
Cultivador de verduras raras. Crecí cerca del Lago de Constanza y pasé un año en India para prestar un servicio social allí. Entre mi bachelor de geoecología en Tubinga y mi master de cultivador y de tecnología de semillas en Hohenheim fui en tándem a India, teniendo un asiento libre para la gente de los distinto países. Como conocía a tantas personas maravillosas, era uno de los mejores tiempos de mi vida.
