About Me

A los dos nos encanta experimentar nuevas culturas y conocer gente nueva.
Amamos leer, cocinar, caminar, y contar y escuchar historias de cualquier tipo.
Somos viajeros de bajo presupuesto, vegetarianos, preferimos actividades diurnas como visitar mercados callejeros, museos, parques y cosas así; y amamos la naturaleza, así que siempre disfrutamos hacer senderismo o visitar lagos, ríos, playas y demás.
Nos adaptamos fácilmente a cualquier situación e intentamos mirar siempre el lado positivo de las cosas.

My girlfriend Celeste and I are traveling around the world since January 2015, both originally from Argentina, we are currently living in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in Spain.

We both love to have fun while experiencing new cultures and meeting new people.
We love to read (a lot), to cook, to walk around new places and to tell and hear stories of any kind.
We are low budget travelers, we are vegetarians, we prefer daylight and outdoor activities like going to street markets, museums, parks, temples and things like that; and we love nature, so we always enjoy getting in touch with it.
We easily adapt to any situation, and always look at the positive side of things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

[English below]
Él: he visto la Garganta del Diablo a bordo de un botecito en las Cataratas del Iguazu, en Argentina. Vi el sol ponerse en las montañas del norte de Tailandia y salir sobre los montes de Hawkes Bay, en Nueva Zelanda. He dormido con los beduinos del desierto israelí y caminado con una anciana local por las calles de Atenas.
Nade con tiburones ballena y sardinas en Filipinas y camine 160 kilometros por el Himalaya hasta el paso Thoroung La, en Nepal. Escale a la sección abandonada de la Gran Muralla China y sobrevivi a un ataque de pánico a 6 metros de profundidad en el Mar de Bali.
Acampe en una isla del Lago Baikal en la Siberia rusa y camine por los templos de la antigua ciudad de Angkor Wat, en Camboya.

Ella: dejar todo atrás y mudarme a Nueva Zelanda por un año, y dormir en la frontera entre India y Pakistan, en el medio del desierto, sin nada sobre mi cabeza más que el cielo nocturno.

He:
I've seen the "Devil's Throat", one of the biggest waterfalls in the world, from the very bottom, on board of a little boat in the Iguazu Falls, Argentina. I've seen the sun setting on the mountains of the north of Thailand, and rising over the mounts and hills of the Hawkes Bay, in New Zealand. I have slept with the beduins in the Israeli desert, and walk with a local old lady through the streets of Athens.
I swim with whale sharks and sardines in the Philippines and walk 160 Km through the Himalayas to reach the Toroung La Pass in Nepal. I have climbed to the abandon section of the Great Wall of China and survived a panic attack 6 meters underwater while scuba diving in Indonesia.
I camped on the forest of an island in the Baikal Lake in the Siberia of Russia and walked through the temples and ruins of the ancient city of Angkor Wat, in Cambodia.

She:
Leaving everything behind and moving to New Zealand for a year, and sleeping in the Indian/Pakistani border, in the middle of the desert, with nothing but the night sky on top of my head.
