ABOUT ME and ANGELA

We are very enthusiastic and active people. We are here because we love travelling. Travelling for us involves not only going to new places but to be able to meet and interact with new people in order to exchange cultural knwoledge and to always learn something new. We are easy-going, funny, and we love cooking, doing sports, dancing and exploring the nature and wildlife. Angela works as a nurse in Oslo, and I am a languages teacher currently working at a International School in Moss! We are loving the country and its people so far! Surely we will cook something typical Spanish for you if we ever meet!

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANYTHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT US! We are happy to answer!

Looking forward to making new friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When we travel we always love meeting new people and interacting with locals. Having a beer with someone from another country or even someone just coming from a different cultural background can be so rich and enlightening.

We see CS as an opportunity to meeting locals and learning about their lives, their stories and the way they know the place and country where you are staying, exchanging stories, opinions and ideas is just great!. Sharing is just the best way to make friends! We are generous people, as we believe everyone here is likely to be so. Thus we understand the CS experience as a mutual act of sharing either be a place to stay, food or wichever form of sharing may be!

**I had this account since 2014, but I had only used it for a trip to Scotland I did and hadn't been used eversince. So we are very thrilled to have reactivated the account and hopefully be able to enjoy it in Norway!

I bumped into the king of Morocco while sailing around the Amsterdam chanals on a small boat with my friends and security surrounded us!
