Description

Hi! We’re Marco and Anna-Theresa, a warm, grounded couple from Germany/Austria, about to travel through Sri Lanka, India, Australia, and New Zealand. We're passionate about learning from others, connecting with different ways of life, and contributing meaningfully to the places we visit.

Our travels are guided by a deep desire to get to know people, cultures, and ways of living — not from the outside, but through shared experience and real connection. We believe that every person, place, and project has something to teach us and we want to grow through what we learn.

We’re also both certified yoga teachers and bring experience in ecology, education, permaculture, vegan/vegetarian cooking, gardening, landscaping, and creative, conscious community living.
