“My dears,
We were speechless for a long time and no longer reported. We are sorry, but we needed some time.

Room to experience this adventure separately. To meet again and tell each other the exciting stories and experiences that you made.
This is exactly what we give each other time and let go for the moment.
We would be very happy if you are there to experience this adventure with us. Are you there? Are you with us?But it is also important to us to thank you for a wonderful time at this point. Without you all of this would not have been possible – you are in our hearts!
Of course we are not gone – you will hear from us, loud or quiet, here or there, because without music it doesn’t work for us!
On the adventure, everything that comes.Love is everything!
Anna + Peter “”
