About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my work for the day

ABOUT ME

We love to meet people and learn what really goes on in a city. We'd rather stay two weeks in a city and get to really know it than see lots of cities but only for an afternoon.

PHILOSOPHY

Kenn:If you don't have a memory of having done it, why do it in the first place?

Laura:"Please, just for me, forget the steps... Hold me, feel the music, and give me your soul. Then I can give you mine."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly hosting, but did some surfing as well. With very few exceptions, it has been a wonderful human experience. It's so nice to feel at home everywhere you go and a nice way to make others feel the same.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We had only positive experiences mainly hosting but also couchsurfing. We have enjoyed it the most in Sicily and Freiburg so far. And also showing people around our wonderful little country.

Interests

Laura: Hiking, Pilates, tennis, naturalistic observation, Argentinian Tango.

Kenn: Flying, computers, history, machines, strategic games, eating (ergo cooking), history, sailing.

Teach, Learn, Share

It's surprising, but water doesn't boil at 100C and doesn't freeze at 0. Instead, under normal, (almost) everyday conditions it can boil at 300C and freeze at -60C. What *is* true is that it melts at 0C and condenses at 100. Just one of those weird facts of life that what's true in one direction isn't necessarily true in the other...
