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.

Born on the shores of Lake Victoria, Kenya, Sam grew up in a small town in his home country The Netherlands.

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.
