CURRENT MISSION

Live and learn

ABOUT ME

We are a fun and easy-going international couple and we are currently living in Thailand. We love to hear stories about the big, big world but even more so to make the experiences ourselves. Nature, environmental and social issues, reading, discussing, different cultures, own vegetable garden, music,...

PHILOSOPHY

Treat people how you want to be treated.

Tippi: quiting my internship after only 2 days and going traveling with a guy I hardly knew - who has become my husband after 3 years; joined an Ayahuasca-Ceremony in Colombia
