We’re Your Passports to Enjoying the BEST of Germany – the Easy Way

We’re Cate and Aaron, digital nomads who split our time between Europe and the US. We have a deep love for Germany that was sparked when we first experienced German life as teens.

In late 2022, we combined Aaron’s IT experience with Cate’s teaching, intercultural training, and global education experience (she has a PhD in German Applied Linguistics and has lived, studied, and worked all over Germany) to help travelers easily enjoy the best of Deutschland.

As destination experts, we know Germany inside and out. But since we’re not German, we are also keenly aware of what it’s like to travel there as tourists.

You don’t need to spend weeks piecing together tips you collect from around the internet, wonder if you’re missing out on something amazing, or second-guessing every decision. We give you the custom tools, guidance, and confidence to create your dream trip, from start to finish.

We’ve helped thousands of people plan all kinds of travel in Germany, and we’d love to help you, too!
