Love is in the air: how romantic can a random flight be?

Love without borders or frontiers
We didn’t meet the usual conventional way, we met purely by chance. On Airbnb to be more precise. In early 2015, I was at that stage 5 years into living in Berlin, Germany from Colombia and I was renting my spare room out to help cover the extra costs of rent. I had a request […]
Jump. It’s worth it.
In July 2016 I was living with 10 other people in a mansion in Sicily, Italy. I was working on a co-living project with a partner who was cracking under the pressure of startup life. It was a hectic time for me. The day I arrived in Italy, my laptop and luggage didn’t show up […]

Especially because I’m moving around all the time. After several disappointments it makes me wonder if it’s possible to have a long(er) lasting relationship on the […]
How to Find Your Nomad (or nomad inspired soulmate)
I remember hanging out with Aline (Founder of Nomad Soulmates) at Beta Haus last year with a few of the girls saying dating as a digital nomad is HARD. After leaving the coworking space I overheard some dudes saying “I slept with one in Thailand, another in Hungary…” I was really put off.
Challenges I face with traveling as a young(!) married Nomad Couple
As a married Nomad Couple we’ve dealt with loneliness on the road, had difficulty in figuring out what “community” looks like while traveling longterm, and societal misunderstandings about our lifestyle. On the flip side, we have a great marriage, we’re blessed to have the opportunity to build our businesses, and we’ve seen more of the […]
Travel changes the meaning of relationships
