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. -

Photo Blog: A week on Tobacco Caye

There are about 450 sandy islands on the Belize Barrier Reef off the caribbean coast of Belize. Belizeans call them ‘cayes’. We have a steady relationship with the two big ones, and I’d say that we’re on Ambergris Caye or Caye Caulker almost every other week. While those two are our steady cayes, we had […]
Volunteering mal anders: mit 180 Kids auf Klassenfahrt

Mein Job und der von Kerstin sind sehr unterschiedlich. Wir sind beide Volunteers und wir arbeiten beide fuer NGOs/ Nicht-RegierungsOrganisationen und wir versuchen beide bestmoeglich einen Unterschied fuer unsere Arbeitgeber zu machen in dem wir unsere berufliche Erfahrungen und Faehigkeiten einbringen. Das sind dann auch so ziemlich die einzigen Gemeinsamkeiten. Meine Arbeit besteht normalerweise darin an […]
A day in the field: Taking 180 kids on a field trip

Kerstin’s and my assignments in Belize are very different. We’re both volunteers and we both work mostly with local volunteers within our NGO/non-profit organizations and we both try to make a difference with our project management and consulting skills. That’s about it for the similarities. My usual work involves sitting at my desk, clicking away […]
Workshop auf Caye Caulker, blaues Auge auf Ambergris Caye

Anfang Dezember wurde ich nach Caye Caulker eingeladen um dort einen strategischen Workshop mit dem lokalen Ableger des Tourismusverbandes zu moderieren. (Achtung – Consulting Blabla. Wer nicht regelmäßig bullshit bingo spielt sollte nun bis zu den Photos weiterscrollen) Beim Workshop ging es darum, aus deren bereits gemachter SWOT-Analyse konkrete Projekte und Arbeitspakete abzuleiten. Die Basis […]
Workshop on Caye Caulker, Black Eye on Ambergris Caye

Early in december I went over to Caye Caulker to facilitate a strategic workshop with the Caye Caulker Branch of the BTIA. (Consulting blabla following – scroll down to the photos if you don’t play bullshit bingo regularly.) This strategic workshop was all about using their SWOT analysis (which they had already done before) as […]
Orange Walk Town, La Milpa und Chan Chich

Wenn mich jemand fragt, ob mir Belize gefällt, ist die Antwort immer gleich: “Ich liebe es! Tolle leute, tolles Wetter, immer was zu erleben.” Am letzten Wochenende im November hatten wir die Gelegenheit, eine Kombination aus allen diesen Dingen zu genießen. Dieser Post kommt mit einiger Verstpätung – was daran liegt, dass es in WordPress […]
Orange Walk Town, La Milpa and Chan Chich

Whenever someone asks me how I like Belize I answer with a variation of: “Love it – great people, great weather, great trips into nature”. On the last weekend of November, we were able to enjoy a combination of all of the above. This is a long overdue post, largely due to the large amount […]
