Usually, I travel with my twin (hence the shared profile) but I (Neda) will be taking a road trip with a few friends (2 dutch, 2 estonians, and one from usa) as a bon voyage to Norway after spending 2 delightful years in Trondheim. We are looking for places to stay and/or tips on local things to see/do/experience. We are fun-loving friends who are pretty entertaining and can hold a decent conversationalist. And we can cook you food from around the world as well as teach you how to juggle!

OUR MISSION:

Stay wild!

ABOUT US:

We like new things (usually) and we're entirely too easy to get along with.

We love dancing, laughing, playing, twirling, and swimming. We skydive, scuba dive, bungee jump, explore and hike! On our off time we enjoy volunteering (mostly with children, special needs population, and refugees). We love a good conversation and having an adventure.

Neda and Nadine are twins that like to travel together but soon will be living in different parts of the world :( So, to bid a proper farewell (for a little while) we are traveling to Morocco-Spain-Basque Country-Portugal. Neda will then go off to Norway and Nadine will continue through France into Italy, then up to the U.K and Norway then to fuck off in Dubai.

Oh, we also read each other's minds.

OUR PHILOSOPHY:

Happiness is realizing that it is all a great, strange dream.

I'm gonna live til I die.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE:

We started hosting several CSers and surfed a few people's very lovely couches! Also met up with some of the most fantastic people for drinks and developed super friendships with them!

Interests

I (Neda) enjoy reading, thinking, speaking (but only after thinking), learning, being aware of the world around me and my thoughts about it, Palestine, different forms of reality, hiking, suicidology, social aspects of different cultures and horticulture.

I (Nadine) enjoy talking to strangers, cooking for others, laughing, being aware of the world around me and my thoughts about it, oysters, watching people surf and thinking that i should definitely get better at it, breathing (i really like that), making lists, and hearing people's stories. I LOVE SOUP!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We've floated in the Dead Sea, experienced Jerusalem, prayed in Mecca, walked among giants in Petra, swam with sharks in Mexico, threw tomahawks in Canada (Neda only), dissected squids in Key West, watched some intense pakistani wrestling in Dubai (Nadine only), sand boarded in Dubai, ate a brownie in Amsterdam, farmed in Bethlehem (Neda only), surfed in South Africa (Nadine only), jumped out of a plane in Florida & New Jersey, skinny dipped in Sweden, swam in glacier water in Norway!

Teach, Learn, Share

Neda would love to learn how to blow glass and play the upright bass! She also has been taught the magic wonder of swallowing, spinning and walking on fire and can juggle! I'd love to learn more and run away with the circus!

Nadine would love to learn how to surf properly (I caught my very own first wave last week though!), play piano, sew and make clothes, swing dance and fly a helicopter

What I Can Share with Hosts

Neda can share a great massage, nice words, and tea with you. I can teach you karate moves, juggling, Arabic, how to burp like a champ, and yoga.

Nadine can share some life-saving techniques, my collection of dress-up clothes, secrets, and jokes (that are sometimes funny). I can also teach people how to cook chicken without actually cooking chicken, the awesome art of taking it easy, some line dances and the English language
