Roll &

Travel

The Road goes ever on and on,
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say

ABOUT US

Two people, one road, a million things that could go wrong

We are Fred (37 years) and Olga (30 years), a couple from Germany on our way to travel parts of the world, some of which are not quite mainstream.


This blog is mainly for friends, and family, who want to see regular updates and join us on our journey. If you’re simply curious or need some advice about the regions we are travelling to, you’re very welcome to join the party and get in touch!
