Description
About Us
We are Mina (44), a Korean-German designer with an eye for beautiful details and creative solutions, and Vlad (38), a photographer, traveller, and passionate chess lover. Together, we enjoy exploring new places, meeting people, and contributing our skills and energy to meaningful projects.
Our Journey
Our recent adventures took us to a Buddhist temple in the Lake District, a house-building project in Guria (Georgia), and an old “ghost house” in Albania that we brought back to life. Just recently, we also completed a 150 km hike on the Via Transilvanica trail in Romania.
What We Love & Offer
We love nature, cooking (including Korean dishes), and hands-on work. We’re happy to help with gardening, renovations, photography, or creative projects. We easily fit into new communities, enjoy meaningful conversations, and work well both in teams and independently.
Our Dream
Traveling for us is about meeting people, learning about cultures and traditions, and spending time away from the city. We cherish moments shared with others and hope one day to start our own project in Georgia – with a garden, a workshop, and a big kitchen for shared evenings.

What else ...
We love exploring new cultures and countries, spending extended periods each year immersed in different environments. Our self-employed lifestyle allows us to travel slowly, learn deeply, and connect meaningfully with the places and people we meet.
Spirituality is an important part of our lives: Mina practices daily meditation and draws inspiration from Buddhist philosophy, while Vlad visits an Orthodox monastery twice a year to nurture his spiritual path and stay close to his cultural roots. Both of us value mindfulness, compassion, and continuous learning.
Creativity also plays a big role: Mina expresses herself through abstract painting and weaving carpets, while Vlad channels his passion into photography and storytelling. These pursuits help us find balance between travel, inner growth, and artistic expression.
