ABOUT ME

I am Simone and together with Steven my boyfriend. Together we wander our planet with our camera, exploring new countries and meeting amazing people from different places and cultures. All to create everlasting memories.

As we set foot in New Zealand, our new home for the coming year, we are challenging ourselves to take zero flights on our long way back home to the Netherlands in 2020. Instead, we are venturing into the world of travelling by foot, bicycle, motorbike, car, train and boat. All to raise awareness and to learn more about the impact of travel on our precious planet and to find out more about the responsible alternatives of transportation.
