Description

Heyia! :)

We are 2 best-friends: Alex & Johannes who have a joined account becaused we lived together, but at the moment we are in different parts of the world. Here is a description of us both:

My name is Johannes, I am 30 years old, german, and have now been traveling around for the last 1 1/2 year. Before that I was living in Berlin and finished an apprenticeship as a mechatronics technician. I was working all in all 3 years in the field, but I reckognized rather quick, that I don't want to put my focus in life on the material aspect :)

I think it is incredibly important that we all try to help each other and work on a better world together.
I try to live after the motto "be the change that you want to see in the world". After my apprenticeship I went to Greece to work as a german teacher for Yezidi refuges and after that I worked in France with traumatized children. Before my traveling times I was very active in the aid of the homeless in Berlin and before that I worked a lot with children in my little home village.

Eventhough I believe it is very important to do 'humanitarian work' and to help people with materialistic aid, which they need for a life without sorrow about such things, I believe that working on yourself and your own spiritual development is the biggest benefit, that you can bring to the world.

I have been doing a lot of yoga and also some Muay Thai in Berlin, I am a regular meditator and since 5 years vegetarian (I make delicious Apfelstrudel and Bannoffee pies!). :)


Alex is 29 years old, french & english, is a practicioning vet (probably the hippiest vet you've met), yogi and a passionate raw vegan /fruitarian.

After doing her studies in Budapest, Berlin and Toulouse for some years, she has worked in the Carribeans and Francee, and been doing a lot of volunteering for veterinary wildlife charities (Africa, Asia, Europe) as well as local organic farms, yoga centers, schools, festivals, etc.

She has a healthy yogic lifestyle, interested in nutrition, permaculture, self-sufficient living and is putting a lot of effort in keeping the enviroment as healthy and natural as possible. She is doing a lot of foodsaving and foodsharing and is trying to reduce all sorts of waste to a minimal (in her zero-waste lifestyle but also in the organisations and communities she works with).

One of her biggest dreams, is to work with wildlife animals in an enviroment, where she can participate in the effective restoration of a natural state of these animals and where she can help protect endangered species, whiles finding a natural balance with human cooexistance.

She also loves gardening and all sorts of fresh fruit and veggies and she often said, that if she wouldn't have become a vet, she would've become a gardener. She also practices yoga and meditation nearly every day, enjoys swing-dancing, loves the sound of percussion drums and guitar, playing games and likes cooking for others and herself (mostly Raw Vegan at the moment). She enjoys adventures, campfires, hiking in nature, reading, ceramics.

We are joined by the amazing Moka, our 4 legged furry friend. He is a buddhist monk in a dog body. He has travelled with Alex from France to India by land, has seen thousands of stray dogs and animals, has been in hundreds of vehicles of all sorts, hundreds of houses, farms and other environements. He is super friendly calm and clean. He goes to work with Alex in vet clinics, in farms, in schools, everywhere!

We would also like to meet up with people that are living off grid, or doing permaculture projects, since we are both thinking about doing the same later in our lifes perhaps.

If you are interested in getting to know us, would like a hand for a project or fancy eating home-made banana ice-cream topped with peanuts, just write us!

Have a lovely day! :)
