Hello Couchsurfing Community! We're Claudio Martinez and Ivan Baez.

I'm Claudio, a 36-year-old social work student. My days are filled with learning and making a difference at Meadow Fresh, a milk processing company, and Ivan, a 32-year-old architect with a creative flair. Originally from Misiones, Argentina, he's the visionary artist behind some stunning architectural designs.
Ivan and I's love story began 11 years ago back in Argentina. We have been through thick and thin, supporting each other's dreams and sharing in our mutual love and respect. Our bond is the foundation of our adventure.
🇦🇷➡️🇳🇿 In 2019, we traded our life in Argentina for the wonders of Christchurch, New Zealand. From the breathtaking landscapes to the warm culture, we've fallen in love with this country.
We're thrilled to open our home to fellow Couchsurfing enthusiasts. If you're looking for a cozy place to stay in Christchurch, our door is open!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having moved to New Zealand

Teach, Learn, Share

We can share insights about social work, the art of architecture, and even teach you a bit of Argentine culture, Kiwi culture and cuisine. 🇦🇷📚
We're eager to learn about your travel stories, cultural traditions, and perhaps pick up a few local phrases from your language.
Let's share our passions! Whether it's discussing design, exploring Christchurch, or cooking up a delicious meal together, I'm excited to share meaningful moments.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We bring warmth and respect to your home, treating it as if it were our own.
Let's whip up some dishes together or share our favorite recipes from home.
Ivan can share his architectural perspective, and I'm excited to chat about social work, both enriching our conversations.
Let's exchange tales of our journeys and explore new horizons through each other's experiences.
Beyond a guest, We hope to become a friend who adds a positive touch to your life.

Let's make the most of this opportunity to connect and grow together!
