Marcus has been in Mozambique since 2004.  Working as a dive master on Tofo Beach, enjoying the Mozambican lifestyle and the underwater world, as well as good waves, the decision was easy to stay and to start Terra Agua Ceu Lda. in 2007.

His passion for nature, the ocean, sports and his family keep his balance and his smile. As a professional, he enjoys to bring people from all over the world to this beautiful coast line of Mozambique and show them the raw and authentic beauty of this amazing part & culture of Africa.

Lorien was born and raised just outside of the city of Durban, South Africa. Durban is known to be a lot more chilled out and relaxed than the other cities of Johannesburg or Cape Town, with a distinct beach vibe about it. This beach vibe certainly had a major influence on Loriens life. After school he decided to venture to London for a gap year, which quickly turned into a gap 2 years. After this he returned to South Africa to study tourism management. After a short stint in an office based position, he decided that it wasn’t what he was looking for, and promptly took an internship at a dive centre and worked his way from divemaster to dive instructor. He then travelled and worked in South Africa, the Seychelles and Malawi as a dive instructor, before a chance meeting with Marcus on Lake Malawi. Being part of the TAC team in Tofo, Mozambique is a dream come true for Lorien, with incredible diving and surfing opportunities, not to mention a fantastic team of work colleagues.

Amaya was born in Shakespeare’s land, in the town of Stratford upon Avon and raised in Madrid, capital of Spain. Being lucky enough to be able to communicate in both languages made her realise that the world is an open oyster, so after completing Tourism Studies at the University in Madrid she left Spain in 2003 in search of her adventure. After 6 years in England life brought her to Mozambique where she decided to settle in 2009. Tofo Beach has given her the chance of experiencing what she always wanted, a life next to the Ocean. After meeting Marcus and Elisabeth in mid 2009 Amaya became part of the TAC team making it her reason to stay in Mozambique.

​

At this present moment, life cannot get any better, to be able to wake up in the morning with a smile and enjoy what she does has no price and Amaya certainly knows it. Apart from her love towards animals and her job her other main interests are art, music, cinema, football and most of all being with friends and people she loves.

Originally hailing from New York, USA, Tate has been living in Mozambique since early 2018. Her draw towards Africa began when she was only 15 years old, after traveling to Tanzania on a photography workshop and falling in love with the culture, diversity, and wild landscapes of East Africa.

Tate received her Bachelors Degree in Photojournalism from San Francisco State University, and promptly began working as an itinerary developer, content creator, and expedition guide for travel and expedition companies around the globe, including National Geographic, The Nature Conservancy, and Backroads Active Travel. Tate first visited Mozambique while leading a photography workshop, and knew that Mozambique was the place she would want to call home.

When not working, Tate enjoys backpacking, reading, traveling, gardening, and hanging out at home with her two dogs and cat.
