Interviews

https://spicyroad.org/interviews/

In our project Spicyroad we hitchhiked roughly 28.000 km from Germany to Vietnam. In the course of this project we collect the best recipes from all over the world which shall contribute to the building of a restaurant. This restaurant shall offer female migrants and refugees the possibility of a job to gain financial independence and to learn the (German) language. On our journey we want to learn from people that have gathered experiences in areas which are of interest for this project like women empowerment and refugee support on a grassroots level. We will do that in form of interviewing these inspiring persons or by volunteering. We try to share the things we learn from these encounters on here as well as on our Facebook page and hope to raise awareness to the causes that these amazing initiatives are supporting.

About us

Spicyroad is a project which aims to broaden the minds of its volunteer members by actively learning about the world around us through social travel (hitchhiking/couchsurfing), meeting with people from all walks of life and learning local recipes as a means to connect with those we meet. By doing this, as well as by meeting with NGOs, we hope to learn and raise awareness of the pressing issues surrounding women and refugee rights through our social media pages and other content we create. We hope that we can use all the knowledge that we acquire to start a restaurant in Berlin, Germany, whereby female refugees and migrants can be independent and earn a sustainable living.
