Roadtrip to happiness

This old Bus was build in 1959 to move people in Berlin from A to B. It was not possible to go for long distance, because of the Wall. Now, 60 Years later - this Bus is still moving. But now, we move people to dream big. We invite our guests to a greater journey without Walls and Borders.

Join us and be a part of this great Journey. The destination is not just a place somewhere. We want to give you a unforgettable ride to happiness and freedom.

Michel Malcin

Founder, Driver and Dreamer

I was born in 1979 in the eastern part of Germany. After finishing school, I worked in a kindergarten before spending a year in the USA. During my time there, I embarked on my first road trip, traveling from New York City to Chicago, the Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, San Francisco, New Orleans, Texas, and back to New York.

Following my time in the United States, I began studying theology, which led to a fulfilling 16-year career as a pastor. However, I eventually encountered burnout, prompting me to make a significant life change. I decided to leave my pastoral role and invested in an old bus, which I converted into a mobile café.

After the pandemic and a divorce, I moved into my bus and startet to travel on the camino to Santiago de Compostela. My true calling revolves around igniting inspiration in others, encourage them to follow their dreams. I find immense joy in being a host, relishing the opportunity to unite people and create meaningful connections.
