I went on this tour and worked in a soup
kitchen with Milton, and he is such an
amazingly inspiring, friendly, and
imaginative person. Even though he's
homeless, he volunteers at GLIDE and
helps to feed others who are also in
need. He embodies what Vayable is: he
has a unique perspective and gives you
access to a world many people have
strong opinions about yet do not
understand. After spending a few hours
with Milton, you'll understand the day-to-
day on the streets, the chronic issues
that prevent progress, and what it's
really about.

Spend a week getting to know Berlin from seeing the
highlights to living like a local in one of Berlin's most loved
neighborhoods, Prenzlauer Berg. Amongst the austere
concrete slabs in Berlin lies a sunny, colorful paradise that
you will be staying in. Tree-lined streets, adorable boutiques,
artists and alternative individuals who give the neighborhood
a vibrant twist, and of course some of the most amazing
restaurants and bars the city has to offer.
You will be guided by Dennis, a scholar of history and
literature who has been guiding travelers around Berlin for the
last five years. He's written an academic paper about Berlin's
nightlife during the Weimar Republic and is an expert on
development of certain districts like Kreuzberg,
Friedrichshain, & Prenzlauer Berg. You will explore Berlin's
history, art, and culture from a local's perspective.
16. Street art is sometimes regarded as vandalism and urban
blight. But in San Francisco it's considered part of life's rich
tapestry, a reflection of the Bay Area's colorful history, radical
politics and diverse population. Ever since Diego Rivera picked
up a paintbrush to create his first SF mural in 1930, the city's
sidewalk artists have viewed walls as oversized canvases, and
in recent years the artworks have spread beyond their Mission
district heartland to other parts of the city. As author of Stencil
Nation, Russell is the perfect guy to help you paint the town
red. And other colors.

19. “I was acting as an
impromptu
tour guide to friends and
family”
“I was planning vacations,
honeymoons, connecting them
with people I met on the ground in
destinations all over the world. I also
speak several languages so I've
been able to serve as a translator”
It all started with a blog
21. The word Vayable is itself a cultural exchange!
“Vaya” is Spanish for “let's go!” Viable means
Vayable “capable of living and capable of growing or
developing.”
