Description

We, Maia and Valdemar, are a Danish couple currently cycling from Denmark to Istanbul through Europe. On our way, we hope to meet new people and experience local places and culture.

We’re both interested in simple living and sustainability. Back home, Maia owns a small plot with a simple off-grid hut, where we plan to move in next spring. For this, we would love to learn more about gardening and organic farming.

Normally, we sleep in a new place every night, which is why we are hoping to stay and learn with locals. We’re looking for some in-depth learning of the local culture and are hoping we can share some of our Scandinavian culture as well.
