The Team

We love to travel, but what is more important, we love to travel consciously and responsibly.

Since childhood two things inspires me the most: wildlife and different cultures. My goal is to discover them and present my experience to my followers.

András Csapó

Director of Photography

Traveling was always my passion since childhood. The only thing changed by now, is my desire to share stories with the widest audience possible via articles, podcast and obviously by documentary films just like this.
