The best MTB tours in San Cristobal de las Casas deserve the best website!

During our MTB trip in november we have met a lot of extraordinary people. One of them is Mauricio Aguilar. Mauricio is the owner of a Tour company called Adventours in San Cristobal de las Casas and he organizes tours on mountainbike for everybody. He has routes for beginners and experts, youngsters and elderly, from cultural to adventures. He knows a lot about mountainbiking but not so much about internet. We decided to help him[…]

Our journey south has begun

Have you ever felt like a bird? Being able to fly off whenever you want? Not knowing where you’ll land, what you will eat, where you will sleep and who you will meet? All you can do is trust your instinct and head south. Why? Not because everybody is going there but because your gut tells you. As far as there is land, you will go south. You are not in a hurry at all.[…]

Working abroad part 2: Internet Junkies

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about how important it is for digital nomads to free your mind from daily hassles so you can do your work. It is vital that you don’t have to think about the location of the supermarket or where to get your next shot of caffein. It’s only then when the real work can be done. However, your mind can be free and you can have all the coffee[…]

Working abroad (part 1)

Today it has been exactly eight weeks since we exchanged our life in Holland for a life like digital nomadz and it seemed about time to share some of our experiences about ‘working abroad’ with you. In the coming period we will anser questions like: How do you make money in Latin America and how do you stay in touch with your customers, friends and family at home? And also, how do you ensure that[…]

It is not about the miles..

As a society, we have cocooned ourselves. Every day we are rushing from one goal or target to the next. And while working on one thing, we are already thinking about the next thing to check off on our list. We are so much engaged in this whole process that we often forget to actually look around, listen to our heart and enjoy the journey we took to get where we are today. With this[…]

Saying goodbye and saying hello!

‘Saying goodbye and saying hello are more related than one might think..’ This beautiful line was sent to us by Saskia (diana’s sister), written on a card and attached to a small heart.. Our hearts felt small and heavy these last few days before our final goodbyes, you could see right through us..Nonetheless, saying goodbye to something means saying hello to something else. Closing one door means opening another. We chose to close the door[…]

Away but close

Mexico, the starting point of our journey, sits on the other side of the globe, about 9200 kilometers from Amsterdam. This feels like being really far away! But we want to stay close to the people we love. We don’t want to miss out on some of the exciting things you are experiencing and doing, we will be away but we are always close. We have figured out how we can stay in touch with[…]

What do you want to do before you die?

Or.. what is on your bucket list? We have just completed our bucket list and put it online for you to browse through and laugh about  it (just as we did), but also to get inspired and create your own bucket list. Life is short and we would like to encourage you to make a list of things you want to do before you die. In this world, everything is possible, you only have to set your[…]

Letting go…

It is 1.00 AM on a monday evening and I can’t sleep. In only five weeks from now we will be on a plane to Mexico! Even though we can’t wait, there is still so much to do. So many friends and family to say goodbye to, insurance things, last minute shoppings and both our business of course also have to go on as usual. These last days I find myself more and more lying[…]
