Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW WE PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After travelling all over the world, we are now more settled, as we have a farm in Northern Portugal. We still like to travel from time to time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We surfed at 3 CS members' homes and it was great experience. We also had those informal experiences staying with/receiving/helping out people we don't know (friends of friends etc.), from other parts of the world.

Interests

Reading, studying, travelling... Cooking healthy food, gardening and growing herbal plants and our own vegetables. We try to practise a bit of yoga and meditation daily !

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Uluru in Australia, old Jerusalem, Lhasa and Kham-Amdo (Eastern Tibet), the desert of Algeria and Tunisia, Komodo island, swimming with whale sharks in Mexico.

Teach, Learn, Share

With an open mind and with respect, we wish to share with people we meet what we think, what we feel, what we have learnt. It can be through a shiatsu massage, through sharing medicinal herbs, through a nice talk about politics, sociology, about the actual world... We sincerely enjoy it as an exchange, and we love learning from the others !

What I Can Share with Hosts

Same thing ! Our adventures, thoughts about the world and fun stories, what we have learnt in this life, our little knowledge of alternative medicine...
