I was born in 1959 in Germany and grew up in Lahr, a small
town situated near the French and Swiss borders, at the edge
of the Black Forest. Early on in life I’ve been interested
in foreign countries and cultures, travelled through many
countries for several weeks, sometimes even months.
During my visit in Kandy/Sri Lanka in 1995, I stayed for a
few days at the “Burmese Rest”, a little guest house
operated by a Burmese monk. Every morning, he told me
stories about “Myanmar”, a country somewhere between India
and Thailand, an extraordinary country with golden pagodas,
beautiful landscapes and graceful people.
On my way from China to Australia, I decided to visit
Myanmar, which I only knew from this Burmese monk. Beginning
1996, I crossed the border from China to Muse, followed the
old “Burma Road” to Lashio and continued by train via Pyin
Oo Lwin to Mandalay. Unfortunately, I’ve never reached
Australia. Due to my wife Shwe Yee and our three daughters I
settled down in Myanmar. However, I kept my passion for
travelling, which also transferred to our children. We love
trekking trips with overnight stays at local houses and
monasteries or spending some days at the beach. My children
often ask me when I will show them the snow-covered
mountains. Hope, one day I will be able to fulfil their
wish.
Living in Myanmar since 1997 and working in the tourism
industry for many years, we finally decided to open our own
travel agency to be more flexible and able to offer
pre-designed tours and tailor made itineraries for a more
reasonable price to each client. Maybe we can welcome even
you someday here in Myanmar. Sincerely,
Klaus-Dieter & Shwe Yee Mueller
