Travel information

We are currently

Activities we are interested in:

We are making our first steps towards a new future; we sold our home, we went travelling, to learn, experience and hopefully find a new place we call home.

Description

Hi! We are Vincent and Sanne, a young-ish couple from the Netherlands. We want to build a new life abroad. After 7 years of being very ill, Sanne made a full recovery against all odds. So, our dream of scouring the world in search of a new home is back on the agenda.

We want to experience nature, make new friends around the globe and learn new skills. All the while we search for a piece of nature where we can live, build a house, grow our own food and be happy.

We have been together for almost half our lives, and after a year travelling in Asia in 2015 we knew for sure, we want to find a beautiful spot to grow old together. We just don’t know where, nor have all the skills we need. So, here we are, we got rid of all our stuff, packed our backpacks and flew away. Ready to visit all kinds of amazing people all over the world, for as long as we want, until we find our new life.

We hope to meet you soon!

More details about your skills

Vincent is an engineer, works at Siemens Energy. He has skills all over the place (Sanne is typing this, obviously), especially in the customer and sales department, and of course knows a lot about energy and has technical knowledge. He is a smart hands-on guy, learns quickly and is very proactive.

Sanne is a Pranayama & breathwork facilitator, and she loves to share her teachings while traveling.
She is also a social worker, worked in a psychiatric institution, and has worked with people with autism a lot. For two years she has been a volunteer in an 8000m2 big organic vegetable garden, growing all kinds of tasty goodness. For one year she has been growing her own vegetables at an enormous greenhouse together with her friend.

Of course we have a lot more to offer besides this, but this is the main gist.

What else ...

What else.. Not much really. We are so happy to have started our worldwide adventure! We started in Costa Rica in November 2025, and learned some Spanish first. From here, we will go with the flow, see where the road takes us. Looking for good places to stay and work, meet some great people and learn a thing or two. Looking forward to continueing this great adventure.
