Hello guys! We are Marta and Javier, from northern Spain. We are traveling around the world for almost year and a half. Before we were traveling by bicycle and now we are just backpacking! :)

You can check out our stories in Instagram. We are @simimochilahablara ;)

From January 2022 we cycled fron Spain to Saudi Arabia. Then, we decided that it was time to continue just backpacking the rest of the trip; heading to Pakistan and India. This is our second long travel-adventure, after backpacking and hitchhiking Central Asia, Europe and Middle East in 2018 and 2019.

We really want to keep using couchsurfing as we did in 2019. We had some of the most interesting travel experiences thanks to CS in countries like Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan or Iran and now we would like to keep doing the same; enjoying this awesome community

Interests

I studied History and music, and I find interesting everything related with geopolitics, ethnicity, history and so on. I've worked for two years as a chef in a restaurant as well, and I'm ready to show it

Marta is the most dedicated primary school teacher you can find and she loves crafting and kids. She also loves food, and by food I mean tasting new flavors and dishes.

The important thing is the people who is close to you. That makes the perfect environment. The context, the stories of the people and the environment make every moment special and something to remember forever.

If two people want to talk, they will do it. It doesn't matter the language.

We love traveling, backpacking and hitchhiking and cycling. So don't be surprised if we are talking about traveling too much
