About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Ready to immerse ourselves into the heart of the Southeast Asia´s culture.
We are planning a short but exiting trip to the Southeast Asia, so we have just joined Couchsurfing because we had great commentaries about this huge community of travelers.
We want to show our friends and family a piece of another half of the world, of which we know very little about
We are brother and sister that love travelling and meeting different lifestyles, contexts and its people. We live in a small town in Argentina and we keep the culture and tradicions in our country. Also we have genuine heart to receive and tell life stories.
We are aware that along our academic education nobody taught us enough about oriental culture. That is the reason we have been convinced of go in depth into on our own. So, here we are: prepared to share experience with locals … in fact nothing less than the other half of the world!
We are art student (Sofía, 23 years old) and engineer (Iñaki, 26 years old). Although we were quite dissimilar and at present we live in different countries, we decided to paths to cross and join into a fascinating trip to some places of the Southeast Asia.
One more thing... I (Sofía) am Vegetarian, so I don´t eat any meat/chicken/fish; and my brother (Iñaki) eat everything but he is allergic to spicy food (he can eat just a little spicy).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are recent in CS, so we have not had any experience yet. We read about CS on a travel blog (http://marcandoelpolo.com/), in which two young travelers inspired us to do Couchsurfing because of their great experience´s posts.
