WELCOME TO LIVING ADVENTURES.
DESIGN ROOTED IN the ALPS
Welcome, Friend! I’m Sarah Van Hazinga Kowalczyk (I know, a mouthful! But a Van Hazinga can’t marry just a Smith. ;)) and I founded this company from the desire to share with you my love of EXPLORING this beautiful world! (In particular, but not limited to the Alps and the beauty of Europe.) As an expat Mom, TRAVEL & ADVENTURES fuel me and I love to share the chase and joy of experiencing them with you and your families. Nothing like those moments of sublime when you break out the perfect picnic at a bellavista lookout point after a rewarding climb, find yourself under a sea of stars snuggled up with your loved ones, or find metro heaven in a cool coffee shop in a fun neighborhood visit. Exlporing our world happens in the little things as much as the big. What makes it even better is when you can make eco-sustainable choices along the way.
A noble raison d’être is to be always EXPLORING. But, as more and more of us answer the call and we continue to get out and see the world, we need to be mindful of the impact we’re having on these precious destinations.
Which is why TOUR NOIR has joined the cause of environmental protection and preservation to help you find inspired ECO-CONSCIOUS choices to help you carve your own sustainable explorations. In our shop we try to source organic and recycled products as much as possible. As well as carrying a range of products that are reusable and reduce overall waste.
Living simply and minimalily. With maximun NATURE and minimal environmental IMPACT.
Living our best Life. Living our Adventures!
