Description
We are a German / Norwegian couple that met through our passion for bike packing and creating music festivals in a small community in the Norwegian mountains. This took us on a journey to Taiwan seeking culinary experiences, spirituality and learning more about nature and farming.
As we are travelling through Taiwan the next few months, we want to increase our personal growth by engaging with local communities.Interests
