Hi there!
We are Lea and Paul, an enthusiastic couple from Germany who quit their jobs to move from rainy Essen to sunny Barcelona. To be honest, our first thought where to move to was Central or South America but after further consideration we realized that we don’t want that big of a distance to our family. Nevertheless, we decided at least to give ourselves 4.5 months to experience the vibe and the day-to-day live in Panama, Nicaragua and Costa Rica (and to see what we’re missing out on😉). Lea had the chance to spend 2 months in Colombia in 2019 and together we spent a 3-week-vacation travelling through Mexico what made us even more curious to explore other countries and cultures in Central America, get to know the people, discover the nature and improve our language skills!
We love to try and teach ourselves new things (like bouldering, chess, pilates, coding (Paul), drawing present cards (Lea)) and be active and outside (not least as a balance to our current office jobs).Centres d’intérêt

Basically, our work consisted of renovating and upcycling things. For example, we cleaned, sanded and painted an old bedstead and cut planks of wood to build a new slatted frame and we sanded and painted the wooden posts of a carport and… read more
