Meet Mariposa Mundial
Hi there, and welcome!
We’re Lennard & Anne — two Dutchies in love, about to change our lives in a pretty radical way.
On June 1st, 2025, we’re packing up our lives, leaving behind our jobs, our home, and everything familiar to follow one wild, beautiful dream:
To discover everything Europe has to offer, together.
It’ll be just the two of us, our dreams, and our tiny home on wheels: Casa Mariposa — a cozy campervan that will carry us across mountains, valleys, coastlines, villages, and everything in between.
Mariposa Mundial means "Global Butterfly" — a symbol of transformation, freedom, and conscious living.
That’s exactly what this journey is about for us.
We’re not just going on a road trip.
We’re starting a new life — one filled with meaningful adventures, intentional choices, and a shared mission to live with more heart, more purpose, and way less waste.
This journey is also about us.
We're not only discovering Europe, we’re discovering what it means to truly live, love, and grow together — far from routines, and deep in the unknown.
We’ll laugh. We’ll probably cry.
We’ll dance at local festivals, get lost in the forest, and sip wine with strangers-turned-friends.
We’ll hike until our legs burn, fall asleep under the stars, and share every imperfect, unforgettable moment — with each other and with you.
🗺️ Discover Europe
Europe has so much to offer — and we want it all:
🥾 Breathtaking nature – from alpine peaks to hidden beaches, misty forests and wildflower meadows
🎉 Local festivals & traditions – the music, the rituals, the rhythm of communities
🍝 Delicious food & regional recipes – slow-cooked, home-grown, full of love
🚴‍♀️ Outdoor adventures – kayaking, hiking, climbing, cycling… if it gets us moving, we’re in
🌄 Quiet moments in the wild – the kind of peace that resets your soul
🌱 Giving back
We believe that travel shouldn’t just take — it should give.
That’s why we’re:
Planting trees and supporting reforestation projects
Volunteering at eco-friendly and social initiatives
Choosing sustainable travel routes wherever we can
Collaborating with local changemakers making a real difference
🦋 Join us from the start
If you’re someone who:
loves authentic stories and honest connections,
dreams of adventuring with meaning,
and believes that travel can make the world a little better…
Then Mariposa Mundial is for you.
This is just the beginning — and we’d love to have you with us from day one.
Are you ready?
Let’s discover Europe. Let’s grow. Let’s make an impact — together.
Big hugs, lots of butterflies, and see you on the road!
– Anne & Lennard
