Travelling
Our next destination:
Canary Islands, Spain - from Oct 2023 until Apr 2024 View allDescription
We are a small family of three: Janna, Joseph & Naelle. We are currently taking parental time to go travelling for about 10 months with our daughter. The rough plan is to take our van to southern spain and the Canaries to find a sailing boat that takes Joseph across the Atlantic before we meet up again in the Caribeean. Along the way we would like to stop in each country for a while to support projects, learn, teach and find some inspiration.
