Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from The Traveling Richters
2008 was a pretty amazing year – we visited four continents, spent over four months traveling together, experienced a variety of new cultures and geographies, learned a lot about natural and cultural, ate very well and broadened our horizons.
2009 may be a little more sedate though as we’re all a bit worn out from our travels over the last 2 years (over 8 months on the road). But we still plan on exploring the world and learning from our travels, and sharing our observations and experiences with you, and perhaps meeting up with some of you along the way as well.
So, once again, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy & Prosperous New Year!
Jake, Linda, Krystyana, and Bas Richter

Same to you! When exploring the world in 2009, donĀ“t forget Czech Republic where you have citizenship…
Love, mom and dad
