Although this account was originally created by Edicta (the "she" here), Alexander is now part of the lovely picture. We are a couple who enjoy meeting people and seeing new places. We consider ourselves as being pretty simple, down-to-earth, friendly individuals. When no one is watching us, our silliness can get out of control, though. Having you visit us might help us keep that in check :)

We have travelled a bit (the countries listed below are only a sample) and are often fascinated by the continual changes in the places we have visited--maybe you could bring us up to date on what is going on in your city or country! Learning about a new place is also always wonderful.

Note: We have already hosted quite a number of people in all the places we have lived, but just not through CouchSurfing which is why we do not have many "referrals" here...yet!

Also note: We are not partyers or bar-hoppers, so if you are interested in finding that kind of host, we probably would not be where you would want to stay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like to share our home with people who are passing by, get to know people from different walks of life and would like to surf some other people's couches during future trips!

Most importantly, we are here because we like to bring different countries and cultures to us when we are unable to travel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

He: (too shy to share)

She: Cannot chose one! Hiked up Machu Picchu and waited for the sun to rise which gave way to the most majestic view of the old city as the darkness and clouds parted. The first time I saw the Southern Star while in Chile. The first time I slept in the Sahara desert. When I stayed with a village family in the Middle Atlas mountains and my roof at night was the ski.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Us as open-minded individuals, including our experiences and perspectives from visits to different countries and with diverse cultures.

We are also big fans of coffee and tea--so, join us for a cup (if you bring some coffee or tea from your country, we would like you even more!).
