The trip is one of many for the travelers. "'We Want Adventure' is not a one-time project or a simple holiday. It’s about taking on new challenges and experiencing new adventures, while capturing those experiences through the lens and showing them to the world," Brander and Grimminck write on their website. They are currently traveling through India.

Brander's photography and love for travel have taken her around The Netherlands and to Australia, Japan, Indonesia and beyond. Both Brander and Grimminck are interested in helping the people they meet in these developing countries. Grimminck is working with an organic ginger producer in Nepal until 2015. Brander recently took part in a photo shoot to raise funds for a children's home in the slums of Dharan, Nepal.
