Hi all!
This is Beth and Niall from a small town in the countryside outside Manchester (England). We have been lucky to have met people from all over the world and love to immerse ourselves in others cultures, we think couch surfing is a great way to do so!
We spend half our lives in the outdoors- hiking, camping, cycling, exploring. Although the weather in England always rains we manage to find a way.
We are currently travelling South America and having the time of our lives! Our adventure started in Chile in January 2019 where we visited family, then onto Argentina and we aim to cover as much as we can mainly covering parts of Colombia, Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia.
When we return home we will be picking up on work life again so we want to make the most of every day and hope that Couchsurfing can help us with that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We heard about Couchsurfing from a friend who said they used it once and never looked back afterwards, having the best experience of their travels whilst staying with different hosts.
So we’re here to give it a go too, we love to find out about the history and culture of new places and learn how different people think, live and enjoy their lives, this comes with meeting people from all over the world.

Interests

We love the outdoors, whether that be hiking, cycling, swimming, running, kayaking, fishing and we love to do this in other countries even more!
Most of our time at home is spent with family as we both have very big families, if not this then hanging out with friends, drinking and socialising.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit our jobs to travel South America which has been our dream for a long time.

Teach, Learn, Share

We are trying our very best to learn Spanish and aim to have grasped a fair amount after 5 months, if any hosts can help with this it would be much appreciated.
I have a degree in Biology and Psychology and Niall a masters in Law.
I can teach also Skiing and Niall is half decent at Football and considers himself a wine connoisseur.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Being British, we like to think we make great cups of tea!
We are super tidy and promise to bring down-to-earth conversation.
We are very outgoing and always open to try new experiences, we aren’t fussy eaters and will drink almost anything.
