Overview
About Me
We are a married couple from Spain, more exactly from Zaragoza and Mallorca, but we lived in Barcelona lately. We love traveling, reading (in a hammock by the sea, if possible :) , cooking and, obviously, eating. We've been to nearly 40 countries and now we are living in Hannover (Germany) and we would love to welcome people from anywhere to keep feeding our wanderlust.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
We just finished an around the world trip and we love to know people from different places to know more about their cultures. We rather dive into the cultures we visit instead of just sightseeing, that's why we find in Couchsurfing a perfect way to do so even when not travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Make a trip around the globe (waiting to repeat it again!!!). We have also been working in specially problematics slum areas (Jose) and helping abandoned and mistreated animals (Aina).
Teach, Learn, Share
Apart from the hands we give when hosted (see below), we have pretty good and updated information about south and central america, europe, asia, oceania and africa (limited) in case you are planning a trip there and need any tips!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Aina's is a chemistry pharmacist and also specialist on homeopathy, phytotherapy and cosmetics. Jose is an HR Manager, former English teacher. He also speaks fluent French, and despite he's never taught it professionally will be also happy to help with that :) Jose is a good cook too (paella, Spanish omelet...). When CS, we also love to help as much as we can tidying up the house, smalls DYI's, cooking, washing, gardening, etc
