About us
We are the Rawfoodfamily with four raw kids and live on a healthy, natural mostly raw diet since six years.
We teach families about healthy nutrition for children.
Back in 2005 when our second son named Jaro was 14 months old, he always had a sticky nose and developed a cough that made him throw-up sometimes.
The doctor said: “Your son has ASTHMA.”
We were shocked!
Our small, pure son with asthma? I just thought “I don`t want this to be true! I want to have two healthy children and not to worry all the time”.
That is when I started to open-up for some new input and, thank God, I found it in my mother’s bookshelf. “If you want to be healthy, forget about cooking” , was the title of the book that I found there.
Upon reading it, I was hooked immediately… it suddenly all made sense to me- all of my dramatic eating habits during my life. I had never really liked milk, cheese, eggs, messed up food, cakes, cream, and meat. I could have happily lived on apples and salad.
Unfortunately, though, my environment forced me to have something else, which was,“ healthy,“ or „the way that I was meant to eat,“ and that is how I developed my addictions.
After some discussions with my lovely husband, we were ready to start.
We actually jump-started.
We stopped cooking immediately, and swopped-out our normal breakfast, which was bread and jam or muesli, with just having fruits. In the evenings, we would have salad with some toasted bread topped with lettuce, tomato and avocado.
We wanted to keep some normal things, because of Benny. You must keep in mind, that he was 3 by that time, and had eaten a standard diet ‚til then. We felt great! And Jaro, our ill child, was cough-free after just 3 days. Our journey went on.
After a lovely (about 80%) Rawfood summer in our gypsy wagon, we left Germany to travel the world.
It made the Rawfood Journey a lot easier to leave the “cooked food background”, but we still ate maybe 80-90% Rawfood. We had a lot of fruits at this time.
In Thailand we discovered that I was pregnant again. My first Rawfood pregnancy so far. I developed cravings for dark green leafy vegetables and cherries. I had never felt so good during one of my pregnancies before.
I was just more energetic and especially stable in my emotional status. We loved life in Thailand! 
There were the best, ripe fruits available everywhere and we enjoyed all of them! We spend most of our time at beaches on small islands. After a month we went on to Australia, where we stayed some months at the east coast. We met many families and had a lovely time at Byron Bay and Nimbin
Ronja was born in Germany, and never ill, in her 5 years she has been with us.
We went on 100% raw food before Ronja was born and stayed on this diet for the next four years.
After starting on raw foods we had a high percentage of fruits and nuts in our diet, but ever since Ronja was born we added a magical new superfood to our diet that really improved our health level to a new level.
We did daily juices with a mix of wild edibles.
We still do this every morning. Up until today!
Its the most dense superfood on earth – and it is for free!
It was a beautiful natural birth like Jaros and the whole family was involved.
When Ronja was some months old, we decided to move again. We did let go of all our things we had, and moved into our loved truck called “Emma” !
We loved her so much and it was a beautiful time of freeing ourself.
We constructed the whole inside of this bus with real wood and enjoyed a lovely European summer in our mobile house!
We spend over a year living in the truck traveling Europe and going with the flow.
It was so easy going with the flow, because we were mobile.
There is much more flow when being flexible in all directions!
But we used the law of attraction to move again. We imaged ourself to have a warm winter down south. We wanted to go to the Canary Islands. And so things were rolling for us. We were so clear and focused about that, that we attracted the right persons to just do it!.
Exactly on Christmas Day, we sold Emma, and some days later, we were where we wanted to be:
On La Palma (Canary Islands, West Africa)!
Hear what our kids have to say about our
raw food diet life and what they like to eat
We spend some months there at a friends place, where Ka did some building and enjoyed a warm winter, and an very early spring starting in January-February 2008!
The summer of 2008 was a camping summer in Germany, living in a tent and sleeping outside in beautiful nature for months.
But, then we decided to go to England. The main reason for us was, that we wanted to do homeschooling with our children, and this is not allowed in Germany, because of some strange laws there.
We left Germany again, and this time, it was forever!
We moved to England and enjoyed the freedom there. We enjoyed the freedom to homeschool (actually we are doing “unschooling”) our kids, with no regulations.
That was good, yet we suffered from another cold, dark and rainy winter in Northern Europe.
So we gave each other the promise: NO MORE COLD! This was the last winter in a cold climate.
After starting our online business and website in 2009, and building our list and reputation, we decided to leave UK in November 2009.
We just needed and wanted the sun, sea and good, ripe tropical fruits!!
So we went to Thailand, in order to eat durian, enjoy the beaches and have sunlight!
We feel so blessed, that we can live the life we want, and share all our knowledge and experience with you out there !
After having been back in England for some weeks in March 2010, we just took off heading towards the tropics once more, and right now we are in Costa Rica where we feel like we have met our destiny.
We gave birth to our fourth child in the jungle of Costa Rica and feel so blessed with the beauty of the tropics and, our four healthy raw food children and the chance to pass on our knowledge to you!.
Costa Rica, is sooo beautiful, and we intend to stay, at least until the next adventure happens…
So our story has not ended in Costa Rica…..no way
It has only begun!!
