We are a 4 years old couple that are passionate about photography, outdoor, music and almost everything related to art. Our desire to travel the world grows more and more every day.

We based our backpack Europe trip on CouchSurfing and we are glad we did it! We left home for a month to visit Paris, Berlin, Munich, Bologna, Rome, Florence and Marseille. CouchSurfing helped us to meet amazing people and to learn about their cities. For us, it's been the best way to travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to spread joy around us, be positive and transmit our passions.
« When you want something in life, you just gotta reach out and grab it.»
