* Please be aware we are a young family. We are sociable and enjoy very much receiving travellers but we are not party people *

We have travelled across the world and we enjoy exchanging travelling and hiking stories. I am a Biologist, she is a Graphic Designer, we both love nature. We speak English, German, Spanish and Portuguese.

WHERE WE LIVE

Gmunden, Austria, since 2015
On the foothills of the Alps.

WHERE I LIVED BEFORE
I lived for five years in Iceland, and three years in Austria. I also lived in Holland, and grew up in Portugal. We travelled across most of Europe, Brazil, India and southeast Asia.

CURRENT MISSION

Besides being a Biologist, I have a strong interest in environmental issues.
Also been a professional soap-maker.

I love hiking and gardening, stargazing and travelling.
And with a lifelong interest in permaculture, and astrology.

In Iceland I lived in a eco-community of 100, in the middle of the wilderness, that took care of people with special needs, working in art workshops. There I was running a organic soap workshop and also worked in sustainable food production. Now I moved recently to Austria.
