After what some may consider careers in consulting and logistics, we quit our jobs, sold our stuff and left Germany to be full-time travelers and development volunteers. This blog is about our travels, our work as volunteers and our alternative life strategies - always looking to make an impact and to find the meaning in what we do or put some into it if we can't find any. -

Shirt Raffle -Unser letztes Hemd
Over the last years, I accumulated a t-shirt collection of about 100 items. Where others buy souvenirs, I buy t-shirts. Now I’m going to Belize with a minimum of stuff and clothing to take. Most of the clothing will be either functional/outdoor wear or stuff fit for Caribbean weather (linen, etc.) In den letzten Jahren […]
Exkurs: USA -Portland, OR
Hello from the road. This time around, I’m in Portland, Oregon on business. I will write down my impressions from here, since it was last year in the US (OK, california, not oregon) where we had the idea for our trip. So, I’m back in the US of A where I spent 6 months in […]

Der einsame Cowboy / Lonesome Cowboy…
Tjaja.. auch das gehört zur Abenteuerplanung: Kleine und große Rückschläge. In diesem Fall zum Glück eher kleiner. Leider werde ich (K) beim singenden-Cowboy-Flohmarkt-Fundraising-Tag nicht dabei sein =( Trotz Kündigung gehen meine beruflichen Reisen wohl bis zuletzt weiter. In diesem Fall steht noch ein Trip quer durch die USA an. Portland, Malta (nicht die Insel sondern […]
