CURRENT MISSION

Jess and Dan are taking a two-week leave period and spending some time in Spain. We're flying into Barcelona on 22 August and flying out on 6 September. Between that time we're hiring a car and driving from Barcelona to Granada. We would love to stay with any interesting persons that are kind enough to host us, if you live anywhere between the two cities.

ABOUT US

We are both 26 years of age. We'd like to think that we're both polite, friendly, approachable and respectful. We can't cook very well but if you're brave enough we'd love to cook up some sort of South African delicacy.

PHILOSOPHY

Respect, love and a constant willingness to grow! Unconditional acceptance and adventure is the path to enlightenment.
