CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world, write incredible stories, meet interesting people, make thought-provoking films

ABOUT ME

Emilie - grew up in Montreal, one of the best cities in the world, only to move to Vancouver, again, another one of the best in the world. I've traveled a bit through Europe and the States, but am currently on a Latin American Odyssey that began in December 2007. I plan on seeing all of Central America and as much of South America as possible.

Sam - grew up in London, a crazy place for a kid, moved to the English countryside, only to get the wanderlust, traveled throughout Asia, Australia, Kenya, bits of Europe and now am traveling throughout Central America with Emilie.

PHILOSOPHY

you only live once, so you better make it count! when you look back on your life you better make sure it's worth watching.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We unfortunately just sold our home in Vancouver, which is why we have no couch to offer at the moment. We are traveling right now for the next year or so and would love to meet other Couch Surfers throughout our journey, share ideas, stories, laughter, good food and wine (we're both great chefs!)

None at the moment, unless you count friends' places after too many drinks!
