Description
Dear Community,
We are two passionate young osteopaths from Berlin, Germany about to travel New Zealand.
As a couple we very much enjoy spending time in the outdoors to escape the fast and busy life in the german metropol. Hiking, bikepacking, surfing etc. brings us happiness. A delicious piece of dark chocolate alongside a freshly brewed coffee or tea keeps us motivated. A warm ray of sunshine brings motivation too.
Lena grew up on an organic farm in Luxembourg, where she spend her childhood around animals and nature. As the eldest of four children, keeping an eye on her younger siblings was always part of her life. During her studies in Berlin she was babysitting at different families, which she very much enjoyed. Baking and cooking for friends and family is her authentic way to show her love and appreciation to them.
Philipp (Pipo) loves to do a variety of sports especially in the outdoors. Besides his work as an osteopath he is an outdoor fitness and sports coach.
He really much enjoys physical work in the outdoors. Similar to Lena, Pipo grew up as the eldest of 4 siblings. Getting to know new people and learning new things, such as gardening and crafting is something he really looks foward to do during the travels.
There is always something to learn from each other.
We are looking forward to getting to know you and sharing a helping hand with whatever is needed at your place. Crafting, gardening, babysitting, cooking, baking, doing sports together etc. We are always willing to have a look at health issues with our osteopathic knowledge.
Lovely greetings,
Lena and Pipo
