Spanish couple travelling around the world since January 2015!! We left everything in our easy life (jobs, flat and other facilities) and started a challenging trip with just some luggage.

We are also telling all our trips and experiences in an blog! if you want to check it out: www.desdemisalturas.com It´s in spanish but you can see some pics and videos with no language troubles.

Our goal: meeting other cultures, local people and maybe think about other places to start living.

Cristina is a orthopaedic surgeon, after many years studying in Madrid.

I´m (David) trying to be a photographer. Actually i studied cinema and worked during 2 years in Barcelona but last 6 years i was working in IT companies (IBM, SanDisk) working in marketing and sales.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We love travelling and love meeting people. We think CS is a great way to satisfy both interests.

We consider learn, teach and share are the key to improve this world, in an easy way and that´s we would like to do with CS.

Interests

Both: travelling around the world, trekking, nature...living a different life comparing our small circle of friends and family

Cristina: yoga, medicine, natural medicine, reading books...

David: playing the guitar, scuba diving, running and most of sports, impro theatre, photography, movies, blogging.
