Deep Dive
The crazy idea takes shape
Kari and Matthias open by calling their project a verrückte Idee — a crazy idea. They love traveling and want to visit viewers at home across all continents, eating with them, possibly staying overnight, and uncovering the best stories from their German-learning community. Matthias mentions wanting to visit Korea for the first time, while Kari dreams of Brasilien or Kolumbien. The core pitch: let us experience your real life and your real stories.
How to invite them: any occasion works
The hosts lay out the options. Viewers can offer accommodation, host a typical dinner, invite them to cultural events, or even weddings — they'll show up. The beauty of it, Kari emphasizes, is that viewers just need to be themselves. Matthias throws out dream scenarios: sleeping in a lighthouse, staying in an igloo. They want authentic, interesting stories, and the weirder the better. Nothing is off-limits.
Completely community-driven timeline
Here's the kicker: Kari and Matthias don't yet know when they're leaving, how long the trip lasts, or even the order of destinations. Everything depends on the invitations they receive. It could run four weeks or four months. They frame it as a true community project — a video series that only exists because of viewer engagement and interest. They've published a form below the video for people to apply with an invitation.
