Hi! I'm Ana, a German-Portuguese fireball currently living in Belgium but soon taking off on a backpacking trip through Central and South America with my Belgian husband, Andy. We are both highly curious minds, in love with people, animals and nature. About three years ago, after we both went through some physical and mental challenges, we started to become very mindful of our bodies (and minds), exercising daily and eating unprocessed and organic food as much as possible. We love yoga, dancing (Andy is a former international swing teacher and I practice ballet since the age of 5), reading and horse riding. Our current life philosophy is all about "less is more", which led us to plan our upcoming one-way trip to Central and Latin America - our first ever backpacking experience which will force us to fit our entire lives into just one bag each... super exciting! As for me, I was born in Germany, raised by German-Portuguese parents in Brussels, studied in Paris and Bologna (Italy) and worked in Paris and Brussels before deciding to become my own boss two years ago. Andy is a self-made man. He started dancing and competing when he was 17, which led him to tour the world and teach for 15 years until he built Belgium's largest swing dance school. Now retired from the dance world, he pursues several passions amongst which marketing, business, sports and music (he started playing the guitar in 2018).
