🧠 Philosophy and deeper conversations about life, whenever they flow that way.

Nature is where we feel at home; hiking, diving, camping, and other outdoor activities.

Find out what local people like to do and, if possible, participate.

🤌 Immerse ourselves in the culture through food, habits, language, and rituals.

🏼 Claudia likes to be active. She loves dancing, running, swimming, and yoga.

🧩 Jasper enjoys arcades, biljard, board games, entrepreneurship, and new music experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting locals, sharing stories and partaking in activities together.
Giving back to hosts and help communities we visit.
Making a connection with a place through its people.

Music, Movies, and Books

We would love to listen to your favorite music. What about us? Well, drum and bass of course!
In addition, Jasper appreciates: jazz, hardstlyle, rock, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s. There is no limited to just these genres.

Back home, we prefer conversations over movies. While traveling, we occasionally like to watch a movie that is famous in your country. Do you have a recommendation for a good one?

🗣 Discussing books and podcasts about self-development. We talk and question each other on topics such as mental health, social relationships, and physical health. Jasper is now reading books about friendship, and Claudia is reading a book about self-love.

What I Can Share with Hosts

‍ Cooking: Our specialty is Mexican cuisine, but we love learning about new recipes. Send us a shopping list of what we need for your dish?

Great conversations: Active listening and asking questions are where we are at our best. However, coming up with stories out of nothing, is still something we are learning. Let's help each other. We improve your reasoning by asking better questions, and you help us with telling better stories (spontaneously).

Time Together: Share with us a new activity or a hidden gem you’d like to explore. We are excited to join you.
