Hello!

We are a young couple from Barcelona, Eugenia and Ivan. She is a fashion designer that has worked for a company for 4 years and he is a recently graduated architect. We both share lots of things together within them there is travelling. At this point of our lives, we found the chance to make a big trip around the SE Asia, a place of the world that we always wanted to visit because of the amazing things we had heard about.

We 've been almost 5 months travelling already and had so many enriching experiences in all the countries we've visited. We've somehow maganed to have a good approach with local culture and its people.
From our first couchsurfing experience at the beggining of our trip to volunteer as teachers for unprivileged children among many others.

Right now we're in the final stage of our trip, heading south to Singapore, Indonesia and then Australia!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We not only want to travel, but to deep into the culture of the places we are.
Our aim is to live the places rather than visiting them and we find couchsurfing a great way to do so.
With our previous couchsurfing experiences we've meet amazing people and shared many good moments and we would love to keep doing it!

As we are travelling now, we can't host anyone but once we get back to our hometown or settle down in any city we would love to contribute in this amazing community and welcome great people as the one we have met!
