About Me

ABOUT US.

We are Nicolas and Valentina an Argentinian couple of travellers. We have been going out for about SEVEN years now! and travelling for almost 3 years after finishing ours professional careers.
Motivated by curiosity, we decided that we weren't ready for a life in one place, so we make of the world our new home. Enjoy meeting new people and travel around the world by living deep local experiences is our principal aim .

If we have to define us ourselves , we can say that Nicolas is an architect by profesion, but a photographer by pasion. He loves the waves and the sea, he is funny and very observant. Valentina is psychology by profesion, but life's enjoying by pasion. She is vegetarian, an animal lover and very smiling, She is an open mind person and love reading and yoga..

Our adventure started in the USA, where we lived for 4 month. Then we travelled to New Zealand and we stayed there for one year and 3 month under a Working holidays scheme. We were working and traveling with our lovely campervan (it was so hard to say goodbye to her). After that, we spent 2 weeks in Australia (only Sydney and Melbourne) and travelled to Southeast Asia for 3 month (Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand). We decided to stop in Argentina for some months or our family would kill us, but we couldnt stay quite for too long, so we went for a 2 month's south america travel, visiting Chile, Peru and Bolivia.

Now we are heading to Australia for a new challenge with a Working holidays visa!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We love to travel and meet new people, so Couchsurfing is a perfect opportunity to do both!
Looking forward to make some interesting connections and explore life while travelling around the world.

Interests

What we enjoy the most? Of course, travelling.
We enjoy a great walk and a healthy lifestyle, but anyway a relaxed chat in company of a glass of wine or a cold beer would be great. Also we enjoy reading a book in a peaceful place or whatch series.
We love cycling, photography and bodyboarding especially on sunny days, along stunning views and we love the snow and the winter sports.
We find it very energizing to do some yoga on a nice sunny day
We are totaly seduced by the idea to know new places and meet new people by interchanging stories to make our lifes reacher.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music? Love it - could not get through life without it. Pink Floyd- The Offspring- SOJA - Bob Marley - Coldplay - U2 - Radiohead -Neil Young - Pearl Jam and many others.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We think that when we travel, amazing thing just always happened.
We haven't jumped from crazy places, stand on the North Pole or swim with sharks, but we believe that what we experience, feel, see, enjoy while traveling is something amazing itself.
Unbelievable situations or people appears making a moment unforgettable. Things that will never happen if you just stay for ever in your comfort area without taking any risk. Is not amazing sleep under a bridge, or break down our car far away of civilization and sleep under the most beautiful sky, and feel very happy while doing that? Live with British, Kiwis, Spanish, Irani, Scottish, Irish, North american, Canadian, French, Korean, German, Brazilian and Indian people in one year time?
Many amazing things happen when you go a bit far away of your circle of comfort with your eyes wide open (and it can be traveling or at your place!).
