Bret Ingold and Kristin Frasheski have been working and traveling together for many years. They met while in their final year studying art at Lewis and Clark College in Oregon, the same year they decided to travel for four months in Africa in a weathered, but indomitable VW they bought in a used car lot. The challenge of cultivating a new relationship in a foreign country did nothing but enhance their bond and they have been seeking out adventures alongside each other ever since. 
From the fresh, bright air of the Bahamas to the sultry landscapes of Southeast Asia, Bret and Kristin have remained committed to thriving in inspiring environments. A balanced, versatile and conscientious couple, they are fully dedicated to an uncompromising excellence and high integrity in both life and work.
In addition to travel, Bret and Kristin are devoted artists. Bret excels in sculpture while Kristin enjoys drawing, though they also have experience with other mediums. Confident in the outdoors, they also love, gardening, cooking, reading and developing a wide variety of skills- from batiking and creative writing to free diving, spearfishing and sustainable living.
