CURRENT MISSION

round the world trip

ABOUT ME

Virginia: I am an enthusiastic, friendly 28 y old girl from zaragoza. I have lived in the uk for 3 years. as a good spaniard I started to wonder where the sun had gone in that grey country, and that's how everything started.
I love travelling and I have always done a bit of backpacking but nothing like what I am doing now.
I love the sun, and not in a tanirexic way, but in the nice enjoyable, healthy and happy way.
My friends tell me I am quite a character and I have character, but I am just passionate about what I do.
Friends are one of the best things in life, specially if the number is low , of the good ones. I realized how much I miss them.
I used to be be into politics, now it just depress me. I prefer to talk about any other fair and positive subject but I am always willing to start a conversation

Will: I am an outgoing, sociable 23 year old from Sheffield England. I have lived all my life in the UK and now travelling around the world fulfilling a dream. I only worked as a Physiotherapist for 1 year before traveling. It was the best decision I ever made to leave something that didn't make me happy and I wouldn't change it. I love everything about life and I am here just to enjoy it with everyone I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

carpe diem,
if you base your life in money you will be then predestined to a massive failure.
riete de ti mismo!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

at the moment we cannot offer our house as we are travelling so we will mainly ask for a place to stay. However, when we stay at somebody's place we offer a great cultural exchange and heaps of fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS is a really great way to meet new people. We have had experience surfing in Austria and Russia and we have loved every minute of it!
Will has a blog about the trip if you want to find out some more information. http://www.bordersandbackpacks.com

Interests

well, what can we say, we just LOVE travelling! we have left all we had behind now, to see the world and all the wonders that this has to offer.
we like photography and we of course want to picture every single moment of this trip but we know that what we will really bring home ( if we do not loose our memory cards) are the experiences, feelings, knowledges that we will get by doing such an amazing thing!
