Maarten Schafer
“Quite some years ago, I started travelling the planet. I thought this would learn me something about the world we live in. I was wrong... It learned me something about myself. It changed me. And nothing will ever again be black-and-white again.”
Maarten Schäfer, Around The World in 80 Brands

Ibn Battuta
“Traveling-- it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.”
Ibn Battuta
