Hello! We are ika and erik :)
Erik works as a Web Designer and Ika is a Lawyer.
We are pretty easygoing, open-minded people, and have always considered travelling to be an education in a less formal environment.
Every new day spent exploring the world has helped us grow emotionally and spiritually into the individuals we are today.
We are looking forward to explore this beautiful world together.

Philosophy:
If you can't live longer, live deeper.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
