Travelling
Our next destination:
Mexico - from Apr 2024 until May 2024 View allDescription
Hello everyone! We are Marta and Andrea, a sparkling couple from Italy. We have been together for 9+ years, often in a long-distance relationship: we like to think that what kept us close was our passion for travelling. We share a deep desire to explore far territories, meet new people and mix up in other cultures.
We are cheerful and adventurous: strong as a duo, but with a rooted sense of individuality, each with their own skills, interests and motivations.
About Marta
I am 30yo: resolute and determined but also sympathetic, joyful and chatty.
I love photography and acting, even if I discovered this last passion just few years ago: I was clearly meant to be an actress, don't know what happened then! :)
I have been studying in The Netherlands and France, and changed quite a lot of cities in Italy, which gave me the opportunity to meet people coming from all over the world. I think I was born as a "nomad soul": can't say how happy I am every time I go in a foreign country, visit wonderful places and meet new human beings to create bonds which keep growing over time.
I am extremely curious (ask Andrea how many questions I'm able to ask in order to get all the details I need!:))
Doing sports, either alone or in a community, fills me with energy and happiness. I love conducting an healthy lifestyle and try to make everyday a small act to try to change the world. Green is my favorite color and also my philosophy!
About Andrea
I am 31yo: passionate, geeky and sometimes a little know-it-all.
I love languages, I enjoy reading and story-telling: all in all, I could say that I like words, whether they are spoken, written or just thought. I am a nature enthusiast and I am a fierce promoter of everything ecology-related.
I am a great listener, I am calm and relaxed: I rarely give myself up to nerves and I always find a compromise to solve conflicts in a peaceful way. I am a Lawyer at my core!
I love being healthy, train in the gym or at the swimming pool; but I also enjoy eating, which is why then I have to go to the gym… you may call it a “virtuous” circle!
Yellow is my favorite color: I even painted my apartment in its bright light, despite what the architect suggested…Interests

We are a dynamic duo, an active pair: We think that most (if not all) the chores you would put us up with, we will be happy to engage, even if not our bread-and-butter. We like to learn and put in practice: we are fast learners and a bit competitive too, so we might incur in healthy competition: who did it better? up to you to decide :) We are definitely willing to “get our hands dirty”!
Marta: I am a dog lover and I have always had a good relationship with pets! I have a passion for gardening and plant care in general. I have a 10-year younger sister who helped me develop my babysitting and childcare skills, which I also practiced during my university period abroad. I have an intermediate certificate in photography, and I am quite good at cooking everyday meals.
I am an HR Training Consultant and Project Manager, so I can help with structuring CV or preparing for job interviews, as well as help design and develop an action plan for any kind of endeavors.
Andrea: I enjoy cooking, while learning new recipes. I am good around children since I am one big kiddo myself! So, I enjoy anything that can be played and old stories that can be told. I can help with all indoor chores, as I am an order freak, and I am good with brooms and dishes.
I am a practiced lawyer under Italian bar, so I could help with everything legal. I am also a teaching assistant at Rome university, so I have a soft spot for teaching while also exchanging opinions and beliefs.
We both speak fluently Italian, English and some French and we always love to learn new languages.Age
