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. -

Most of the clothing will be either functional/outdoor wear or stuff fit for Caribbean weather (linen, etc.) In den letzten Jahren [...]
