Brent
Brent was born and grew up in Sunny and warm California. But at the age of 18 he moved to Hamburg to pursue his interests in classical music. After getting use to the cold and wet weather in Hamburg he fell in love with the city. Eventually he finished his Music studies and worked in several orchestras in Duisburg and Eisenach. Unfortunately, he had become tired with being a poor musician and decided to move back to Hamburg to pursue his new studies in business and devote a great portion of his time to showing tourists the great and wonderful city of Hamburg.

Erik
After graduating university in the U.S. with a degree in Biology, Erik decided to put his studies to use and move to the homeland. It actually turned out that he liked history and tour guiding way more than the mating behaviour of waterfowl. So now Erik can be found faithfully leading groups of other newcomers on safaris through the lovely and interesting bowels of Hamburg’s history on the New Hamburg Free Tour and studying the interesting and complex behaviour of the wild Hamburger on the New Hamburg Pub Crawl!

Johannes
Born in Osaka, Japan, two weeks later Johannes stepped into the plane to discover the world.
Raised by a Japanese mother and an Austrian father in Vienna, he finished his studies of International Management. But soon he found out that working 9 to 5 is just too boring, so he’s now on his way to become a TV and stage presenter, specialized on traveling. When he came to Hamburg to reach this goal, he got somehow stuck in the endless depths of the Reeperbahn and never found his way out.
When he’s not giving tourists the most awesome time of their lives, Johannes likes to do Japanese sword fighting, mix cocktails and of course travel.

Sam
Born on the shores of Lake Victoria, Kenya, Sam grew up in a small town in his home country The Netherlands. He loves travelling, discovering new places and meeting different people, which was something he could combine very well with his Tourism Management studies, some of which he completed in Slovenia and Central America. He lived in Hamburg for a year, decided to see something of the world, but came back to the city because he loves it so much. Sam thinks all the water around the city is great, reminding him of home. Sport is a favourite pastime as well, cycling around and running through the city. Besides enjoying the Speicherstadt and the Schanze district Sam likes to come on Pub Crawls too.
