CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world and experience different cultures by meeting people of all different backgrounds

ABOUT ME

We are Ben and Carmen and we are currently traveling to experience new cultures and meet lots of new people. We started our journey in Morocco as this looked a fascinating place to explore with a rich cultural history and many amazing sites, especially natural or ancient ones, which we particularly like. Also another appeal was the amazing selection of food, which we must say as been superb so far!
We were travelling by bike, but due to a knee injury to Carmen have had to take the bikes back home and now continue our journey on foot. We have now also done Spain and currently exploring Portugal

PHILOSOPHY

Go with the flow and be happy!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have had one experience as surfers in Meknes, Morocco and had a wonderful time with a lovely host, who showed us around the city and gave us lots of insights into the culture of the country.

Centres d'intérêt

Ben - I am English and am into all varieties of sport, I especially like to play badminton and cycle. I also love reading, fantasy being my favourite genre although I will read almost anything. My other passion is to travel and see places, especially out in nature, and to meet new people.

Carmen - I am Romanian, from Bucharest. Love to learn new things and see places that are away from the main tourist locations. Also enjoy reading as well, classics like 1984 by George Orwell.
