Currently - South America

We’re a couple with a shared passion to travel, we made the decision to leave the conventional life and explore the world.

This is the first time for me (Jodie) to be backpacking, before this trip I had only seen the world during my holidays, Rick on the other hand has travelled for 6 months around Australia and has also worked in Russia.
We both quit our jobs in October 2018 sold most of belongings and left our family and friends back home to experience what the world had to offer.

We’ve been on the road since November 2018, we started in India and have been travelling since.

Rick - Huge football fan - West Bromwich Albion but will watch anything sport related. Worked in education for 10 years, specialising in working with children with learning difficulties and behavioural issues.

Jodie - Creative and practical. Currently trying to master the art of an SLR camera (all tips and tricks are very welcome). Worked in the fashion industry for 6 years.

We both want to learn to ride a motorbike & learn and master a new language.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Exploring Different Cultures & People
The world is more than a map, go out and explore

We love the ethos of CS, and by travelling and spending time with the people, we will on our return to the UK start hosting surfers for ourselves.
