Coastal Drive
PERU – The last six weeks we drove more than 2500 kilometers along the Ecuadorian and Peruvian coast.
After some time in the Andes and jungle of Ecuador, we were very happy to arrive at the beach again. And jumping in the ocean every morning is the best feeling there is. This time of the year you can see whales here, with a boat we try to get a closer look. Continue Reading
Imagine
ECUADOR – Imagination is a special thing, it is the ability to create something in your mind where moments before there was nothing. The power to create in a split second. And as everybody knows kids are masters in this. We watch and learn. Continue Reading
Your Road
Our latest painting made on the road. Inspired by traveling and other travelers.
“We are all travellers on this world. And when all is said and done, all roads lead to the same end. So it’s not so much which road you take, as how you take it.”

Colombian fever
COLOMBIA – What we experienced in Argentina, happened again in Colombia. We could travel here forever. After six month we have the feeling we saw just a tiny part of this country.

So if you like fried fries and you are looking for some variety, its time to try this recipe… Continue Reading
tree house
Our house on wheels may not be the most comfortable house, but for sure we have a big garden! We stay in the most amazing places during our trip, in the dessert, the jungle, on the beach or high in the mountains. We love our ever changing garden! Continue Reading
Murales
South America is full of beautiful murales, painted walls. After painting a lot in Palomino on cotton, we feel like painting on a wall as well. We get inspired by our Colombian friend Mateo, which job is to make murals in Bogota. After painting the bathroom of Don Diego, it starts rolling. Continue Reading

COLOMBIA – Almost 3 months we’re living in Palomino. A little village on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. Beautiful located between two rivers, on the foot of the sierra Nevada. Most of the time we stay in front of Diego’s house on the edge of the village. A 50 year old crazy and very sweet man. Continue Reading
