We are an adventures couple who loves to travel and get to know new people from all over the world. After working as teachers in Germany for the last two years, we decided to travel across Central and South America for 9 months. We both speak English and German and are on our way to learn Spanish too. In Germany we enjoyed hosting Couchsurfers as much as we like to surf ourselves and we love the fact that communities like this still exist.

Current plan: Guatemala, Belize, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and meet local people. Also this gives me the opportunity to ask all important questions like: "where is the best coffee...?" and... "I'm looking for music tonight, suggestions?" We are all on this planet together so we might as well share it!
