Hello, I’m Imre!

I’m 20 years old, and for as long as I can remember, I’ve loved our planet and all its creatures.

When I was little, you could always find me outside, searching for animals whether it was flipping over stones to find insects and reptiles or quietly waiting to spot birds. It felt like Nature wasn’t just around me. It called to me. I became obsessed.

As I grew older, that childlike wonder turned into something deeper. I began to notice how fast our natural world was changing. Animals I once saw everywhere became rare. Beaches became filled with waste. Forests grew quieter.

I felt a powerful urge to do something. Not just talk about it, but actually act.

That’s why today, I’ve made it my mission to help heal our planet. And with Zai and The Voyage of Dreams, I finally feel like I can make a real, lasting difference.

We’re building a community of people who care, people who don’t want to wait for “someone else” to fix things. People who want to be that someone.

I believe with all my heart that if we come together, we can restore balance to this beautiful world we call home.

Who are we?

Hello I’m Zai!

I am 23 and I have always felt drawn unexplored places. Be that my childhood back-garden, theundiscovered lush Pacific islands or Outer Space. The sea is the last frontier of Earth and a life without braving its dangers seems inexcusable. My other great passion is history and culture. In everything humanity has accomplished and lost; triumphed and suffered, I find inspiration. To me it’s a reminder of what people can achieve when they dream bigger than themselves.

This same ambition what caused Caesar to cross the Rubicon; what led Marie Curie to her exalted heights; what made Martin Luther King Jr give his legendary speech, is what drives The Voyage Of Dreams.

The urge to break away from the ordinary and create something that will last.

Aside from adventure, it must tell a powerful story that will stick with people, I fundamentally believe story- telling to be the single best way of shaping people’s lives. It has for sure shaped mine.

Imre shares that same drive, his love for wildlife and photography will capture this message as well as the unrivalled beauty of our shared world and what’s at stake if we do not make a change.

We wont wait for someone else to protect the planet or tell our story. We’re doing it ourselves and we’re inviting you to be a part of it!

The moment we fell in love with the ocean

I want you to imagine yourself on a boat. It’s not large, it holds about 8 people. Around you is a tangible sense of tension, almost unbearable. As the waves crash against the boat, you see a large geiser burst out of the water, followed by a black figure. As people gasp and the boat draws near to this figure you can start to make out a creature. An overwhelming sense of emotions hit you. You feel an urge to uncover what is lurking below the waves but each time the boat gets close the figure disapears; alas, the ocean is not generous, it teases, it witholds. Each time we dare to close the distance, the shape vanishes. Suddenly, the boat speeds up. The wind and salty spray hits your face as a rush of adrenaline courses through you. The figure is getting closer and the boat is lowering its speed, until you are right next to this figure. As you peak over the edge of the boat, the water breaks. The sleek, elegant curve of something enormous and alive emerges, slow and deliberate, as if from another world. The humungous head comes first, the ridges along its snout unmistakable. And then, its eye. Not a dull, thoughtless sphere, but an eye that knows, that sees, that remembers. In that gaze lies the weight of centuries, the wisdom of a world beneath our own. You cannot speak as you make eye contact with this sentient being, words are too small. A wide, uncontrollable smile spreading across your face is all you can muster. This, my friends, is how we felt during our first whale sighting.
