CURRENT MISSION

Being light and salt in the world. To make a difference. Living the best possible life.

ABOUT ME

We are Germans who decided to live in South Africa. We absolutely love this country and it's people and after a life of restlessness we feel we have finally arrived. But we still LOVE to travel! We are a family of four. Sven, Elke, Anton (18) and Luzie (16). We are writers, we write novels and other books in German and we have the privilege that we can live and work from any place on this beautiful earth as long as we have electricity and internet access.

PHILOSOPHY

Live, love, beauty, truth.
