Hi! We are Andrew and Gemma, from the UK and from Spain so if you can contact us in English it will be great as we both understand. However Spanish, Catalan or French is good :)

We both love travelling and we are now based in Barcelona. We have been here since 2020.

We have lived in Menorca working in tourism where we enjoyed the sun, snorkeling and the nice vibe of the island. We have also done a winter season in Andorra and lived for almost 2 years in Bristol, UK.

Our philosophy in life is be happy, do what you think is the best, always without disturb the others. Sometimes people forget that we just have 1 life, and we must live it in the best way possible!

'We are just a speck in the bigger picture of the whole universe. So while we are here being a tiny speck, we are going to make the most of it.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We both love the experiences that we have got in our travels around the world! Andrew is been hosting some people in Menorca having the best experiences ever and me I've been a host in many places and I've enjoyed all of them, the people who accepted me were wonderful and gave me the most amazing moments!

We also enjoy going to couchsurfing meetings as is a nice way of meeting nice people and share experiences.

Now we cannot host but we will try as soon as we have our own place!

If you want to be hosted... (when we are available)
We believe that CS is a nice way of helping people out, sharing and caring so that is a must if you want us to host you, so please, do NOT contact us if you just want a free place and do not care about having time to share! We can easily see if you are copying and pasting the same message to different people, so we just ask to put a bit of effort to write us a personal message (we are potentially opening our house for you so it's not that much to ask right?) 😉 Say 'Hakuna Matata' if you have troughly read our profile!

Interests

We like to do many many things!!! We both enjoy books so we always have one to read. We love cycling everywhere, do yoga and meditation. Andrew loves playing hockey and Frisbee and I recently discovered boxing! I love it!

We are always up for a pot luck to try nice dishes, concerts, theater, comedy... everything is a good opportunity to have fun!

We both love talking all the time so be ready for that! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gemma: My lovely year living on my own in Canada and my two months travelling all around the country, doing wooffing and couhsurfing, hitchhiking and meeting awesome people and seing the most lovely places and parks! :)

Andrew: My perfect moment of my life was on an island in Thailand.
I decided to do a scuba diving course, going down into the ocean and being able to move left, right, up down was such a new and great experience.
I loved it so much, I decided to do an advanced course. In the advanced course one of the things you have to do is a night dive... (To know more check Andrew Perry profile).

Teach, Learn, Share

We want to knew different people with different cultures and different histories! We don't think there's only one way to do the things and it's interesting to learn about how others live life! :)
