ABOUT US

(Only Edes is traveling at the moment!!)
We are Edes and Aurelio, two random souls that once met and decided to (continue) explore the world together.
Before, Edes has studied in England and Beijing, worked in Macau and Japan. Her dream is to travel and work in many many different places.
Aurelio too grew up and studied and worked a bit here and there.

教，学，和分享

Edes' s motto:
I have never said it is gonna be easy, I just said it would be worth it.

Be who you are and say how you feel, because those who mind don't matter, those who matter, don't mind.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

We would always be up for helping out, adapting to our hosts - respecting personal space, chatting, hanging out or have a quiet night in. We love to cook, can share tips on travels and places, and teach/help with the languages we know. Plus, some smiles and good mood :) We just finished our dive master training in South Africa, so we work as a dive guide underwater, we can also chat your ears off about diving and marine animals !

Edes is a teacher which can also help you with languages and Aurelio's expertise is neuroscience.
