Description

Hello there!
We are Jojo (28) and Nativ (26) an german-israeli couple. Currently, we are living together in Germany and planning our travels.

Jojo is born and raised in Germany, she has always been excited to experience new things. While she grew up in southern Germany, close to the border with Switzerland she experienced during her childhood and teenage years the value of community through social networks.
After finishing her high school, she took 2016 her first flight ever to New Zealand. Later, she completed an apprenticeship in craftsmanship as an interior decorator. Traveled to Mexico for a short time and planned to return six months later with some savings. However, COVID changed the plans.
Now, five years later, after gaining work experience and studying scenography and interior design, she is finally ready to return to her dream of exploring Central and South America. And this time, not even alone.

Nativ and I met during my exchange semester in Israel. We studied at the same University and met on the campus. After falling in love with each other we kept in conact and survived one year of long distance relationship during a horrific time in the middle east.

Nativ grew up in Yavne, a small village southeast of Tel Aviv. As a true beach child, he spent much of his early life by the sea. Even at a young age, he dreamed of traveling the world. After completing his military service, he planned to embark on this journey.
However, his plans were disrupted when, during the final months of his service, Israel—like the rest of the world—was hit by the COVID pandemic. Instead of traveling, Nativ spent a year farming in the valley of Israel, where he gained valuable experience and a deeper connection to nature. Following this, he pursued his passion for technology by studying Computer Science at HIT Holon. It was during his studies that he met Jojo.
Now, with practical experience and a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Nativ is ready to fulfill his dream of exploring the world as well!
