About Me

We are a young couple who likes to discover the world !!
During our round the world in 2013 we were touched by the travelling virus and since this moment we try to move and discover new parts of the world as often as we can.
We prefer to travel off road and discover hidden places. We also like to meet new people to learn about their lifes and cultures.
So if you also like to share good moments and enjoy life we can meet together !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We tried Couchsurfing for the first time in Chile during our round the world in 2013 and it was an incredible experience !
But unfortunetly since this moment we did not have the opportunity to repeat this experience.
That is why we are really open to new experiences and meet new people form all over the world !!

Interests

We are interested in outdoor activities (scuba diving, trekking, canyoning, ...), cinema, rock music (we like to go on show).
Michael is also keen on photography (website : www.michael-portillo.com)
But what we like above all is travel ! This is our number 1 passion and this why we like alos to do couchsurfing : it is perfect way to travel, meet people and learn about them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling is the perfect way to do incredible things that you don't have the opportunity in your daily life !
We have two histories in particular :
- in Laos we bought a long boat to a fisherman in a hidden village and we went down a river during 3 days crossing some small authentic villages without any road acces or electricity. Their hospitality was so incredible ! A wonderful experience.
- in Peru we rent a donkey and crossed the deeper canyon in the world going from village to village to meet the population and its culture. Also an incredible experience.
We have also so many more experience to share with you and we are really curious to discover yours :)
