Hola!
We are an adventurous and fun-loving couple who are currently backpacking, couch-surfing and volunteering our way through the world, learning new skills, making friends, cooking and trying lots of delicious food.

We just finished 2 years of travelling through Central and South America where we learnt Spanish, stayed in the Amazon, volunteered at a treehouse community & most recently ran a Healthy Cafe in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala where we currently spend 6 months of the year living.
Our Intsagram from the Cafe:

Paul was born in Vancouver, BC where he lived until in Maple Ridge until he moved to France aged 12 for one year. Then he moved to Bristol, England where he lived until he was 19 before setting off on an 10 month trip to South-East Asia & Australia. This trip then turned in to almost 2 years on the move including working in a hotel in the beautiful beaches of Sydney to living in a Buddhist Monastery in the Blue Mountains. As well as visiting many more countries along the way such as Fiji, New Zealand, India & Sri Lanka. These travels have fuelled his desire to continue travelling as long as possible.

Natasha was born in Australia before moving to Denmark at age 5. She stayed there (moving around the country a lot) until the age of 19 when she returned to Melbourne, Australia. She remained here for 10 years perfecting her skills as a photographer working for various fashion magazines. As well as travelling abroad multiple times a year to the U.S. a lot and Japan and Bali, Indonesia. After meeting Paul in Australia and craving to experience real travel, she sold everything and joined him to venture the world together.

We love meeting new people and sharing our stories from the road as well as hearing everyone else's. We are both vegetarian and love cooking up a healthy meal, we have a big passion for coffee and fresh, healthy food.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

This is such a great way to interact with fellow humans around the world that we wouldn't normally meet staying in hotels or hostels. You learn so much more from meeting people and staying in their house doing things in cities/places that aren't just for tourists. We also believe that it is possible to have a money-free life. Which might involve trading skills in exchange for food or volunteering and giving back to the community which is why couchsurfing is a great website because it offers so much more to people than standard accommodations.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

We're pretty good vegetarian/vegan cooks and would love to cook up a feast when we stay with you. We believe cooking for people and sharing a meal together is a great way to get to know people as well as enjoying beautiful food! Natasha's specialties are Lentil Dahl, Pumpkin Curry and Super Smoothies. While Paul's are Vegetarian Chilli, Spaghetti Carbonara & Stir Fry. Natasha is a brilliant photographer who would not mind offering you some photos of you & your place in exchange for your hospitality.
