another beautiful day
PASt / our story
Let us take you back to Bali 2016. Two 23-year-olds in their first year of relationship, meeting half way between their bases Germany and New Zealand, spending their last money to see one another and figure out if it was going to work. 2 months earlier Cat and Elie had parted ways abruptly, emotionally floating in the unknown. We are in a random tattoo shop, geckos crawling on the walls, Cat stood like a statue as Elie placed the tattoo stencil on his forehead after 4 unsuccessful tries by a now nervous tattoo artist. It read, “ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY” in times new roman. Certain about the life changing decision of a positive face tattoo in the most uncertain of circumstances. No job, no home of his own, no vehicle and in turbulence with his father. A form of trust like never before, “everything is going to change for the better”. And it did! Fast. In 2017 Elie moved to the other side of the world, from Germany to New Zealand, and the ABD movement started. Selling printed T-shirts and embroidered hoodies at night- and weekend markets as we traveled all across New Zealand supported the mission we were on: school speeches to encourage a sober and free life to the youth. Check out our YouTube channel if you’re curious, Cat created many videos during 2017 and 2018.

Cat and Elie are currently living in Germany. Cat recently started his own business “playing outside”, climbing and taking care of trees, 2-3 days per week. The rest of the week he works for a landscaping company. Elie started a business for hosting retreats and offering her services as a plant based whole food chef.
