ABOUT US

We are Edes and Aurelio, two random souls that once met and decided to (continue) explore the world together.
Before, Edes has studied in England and Beijing, worked in Macau and Japan. Her dream is to travel and work in many many different places.
Aurelio too grew up and studied and worked a bit here and there.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Edes' s motto:
I have never said it is gonna be easy, I just said it would be worth it.

Be who you are and say how you feel, because those who mind don't matter, those who matter, don't mind.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

We would always be up for helping out, adapting to our hosts - respecting personal space, chatting, hanging out or have a quiet night in. We love to cook, can share tips on travels and places, and teach/help with the languages we know. Plus, some smiles and good mood :)

Edes is a teacher which can help you with languages and Aurelio's expertise is neuroscience.
