ABOUT US (Martin and Ginette)

We love travelling and have visited many countries like Vietnam,India, America,lots of countries in Europe, Ghana and Ethiopia. I spent 2 months living with a Mexican family and learning Spanish then travelled through Central and South America for 10 months with Ginette. We were lucky enough to take another 6 month trip in 2010, travelling from Istanbul through Iran, Central Asia, China and South East Asia where we enjoyed our first fantastic Couchsurf experiences. Just back from Chile!
I (Martin) play football and enjoy watching football with friends- I support a local football team and regularly go to watch them play. I enjoy foreign films and discovering new bands - I regularly go to gigs (alternative-ish stuff) and music festivals. I'm into running too 5K to half marathon. Been home brewing beer too recently.
Ginette has a bike tour business, running tours around the beautiful area we live including Royal Parks and along the River Thames so if surfers want to join a tour they can! www.merrypedallerbiketours.co.uk

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We stayed with families in Iran, Kazakhstan and Ukbekistan whilst we were away travelling and it was amazing! A great way to see the country properly, and get a fantastic experience.

Since our return in 2011 we have been hosting ourselves, meeting fantastic people and even visiting some of them in Europe.
