CURRENT MISSION

Learn to live, fill the life of colours, and find our place in the world

ABOUT ME

"Ella" es Carina y "El" es Juan, y los dos somos... "La parejita del Parque Batlle".
Somos personas sencillas, que buscamos aprender de la vida, disfrutar, dar de nosotros, y conocer cosas nuevas. Aunque somos más callados que charlatanes, nos gusta mucho dialogar entre nosotros y con otros, divertirnos con las cosas sencillas y aprender de las cosas profundas.
We are a simple couple who try to learn from life, enjoy, give to others as much as possible. We are rather quiet, but we enjoy talking with others, having fun with simple thinks and learn from deep things.

PHILOSOPHY

I think we are here to learn and to find our place in the world. To do something more than buy and sell.
We think we have something to learn from all cultures and persons. We appreciate honesty. And we think we need to stop worrying about so many things and enjoy life. But... we have to learn much more about it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Somos simplemente una pareja que quiere conocer gente nueva con el mejor espíritu de couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

El ha tenido varias experiencias como couchsurfer. Como hueséd y como anfitrion. Y todas excelentes!
Ella comienza su camino como couchsurfer! Aunque ya con algunas estupendas experiencias como anfitriona.

Please, if you read our profile, let we know! It's important for us to know if someone read it and feel related to us to host him.

Interests

He likes sharing about human being topics, countries and cultures. He enjoy music and improvising with his flute.
She likes dancing, doing crafts, and she likes music but silence too. She studies social education.
We are both quite distracted, he rather reflective, she rather spontaneous, the perfect combination!
He can spend hours in a library, and she in a crafts fair.

A "El" le gusta mucho hablar sobre cosas relacionadas al ser humano e intercambiar sobre países y culturas. Disfruta mucho escuchar música e improvisar con su flauta.
A "Ella" le gusta bailar. Es creativa y le agrada la música pero también disfruta del silencio. Estudia educación social y le gusta todo lo relacionado con esas cosas, o sea, con lo humano.
Los dos somos bastante distraídos. El más bien pensativo, ella más bien espontánea... la mezcla perfecta!
El se puede pasar horas en una librería, ella en una feria de artesanías.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies... We liked Patch Adams, Life is Beautiful, Lord of Rings,
Music ... Juan Pablo likes the traditional European music, particularly Irish music. We both like the Uruguayan folk music, some troubadours such as Silvio Rodriguez, oldies, and classical music.
Books: Juan Pablo liked Sandokan, Lord of Rings, and books by Wilbur Smith (Africa action), Paulo Cohelo and Herman Hesse.
Carina likes El Principito, El Pais de la Nube Blanca, Paulo Freire

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Para "El"... haberse animado a viajar solo 3 meses por Europa! Para algunos podría ser algo muy simple, pero para mí significó superar mis propios miedos.
Para "Ella", haber vivido varios meses en el norte brasileño compartiendo la vida y la cultura.
Algo increíble que hemos visto... el ser humano, con sus virtudes, sus defectos y contradicciones.

Teach, Learn, Share

Juan Pablo says... I am quite stupid for most of practical things, and I don't have a lot of knowledges (my memory is some limited :) ), but I really enjoy sharing and teaching as much as possible. I think I am a reflective person and I try to share what I learn. For example, I write what I find and learn in my trips.
Carina loves learning and sharing about photography and manual arts, but specially, she loves laughing, so.. if you have a good sense of humor here you have a great complice! :)
