About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just got back from travels so staying put in Wellington for a while.

ABOUT ME

visited 35 states (15.5%)
Slovak/Kiwi couple who love to travel. Travelling is our reason for being - visiting new places to understand our differences and similarities as humans. We will never be financially rich (as we spend what we save travelling as far as we can) but are wealthy in terms of experience and adventure, and this makes us happy. Our past travels have taught us a lot about who we are and how we work as a couple, but we really crave a more human experience for our future travels. We have seen many places far too briefly - now we want to meet the people of the world!
We met in New Zealand when Mario was visiting and Ceara was just leaving. Rejoined in Thailand where we started our adventures and life together. Have been traveling and adventuring since.
Mario is a tattoo artist (http://www.facebook.com/inkedbymario) and Ceara is a personal trainer and we are both lucky enough to be doing jobs that we love although we have done everything from apple picking to teaching and engineering.

PHILOSOPHY

Embrace and learn everything what happens around you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couched few people so far, had a blast, good way to share experiences, show people around, advice them where to go and what to see ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting people is fun!

Interests

Sports would be the first, we are both addicted to exercising, as my partner is fitness trainer and bodybuilder and I just love to run ;)
Of course motorbike would be the other very big interest and ART which is big part of my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting on the ground, having our lunch of bread and tomatoes, next to our motorbike in the middle of Kosovo (just before it officially broke off from Serbia) with big UN armored vehicles parked few meters away fully equipped and armed with heavy artillery.
Walked 35km in two days in the middle of Lao instead of waiting for bus, sleeping overnight at some friendly local's bamboo house and enjoying the local everything.
Couchsurfing in China was most amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

Ceara loves to study and has studied many subjects from sports training to psychology. She is qualified teacher who, before teaching, studied and worked in the fashion industry. Ceara grew up in New Zealand's rain forest.
