Description

Hello, we are Szymon and Martina, a Polish and Italian couple! We decided to take a break from life in Europe to explore the amazing continent of South America, the country that (Martina in particular) has always been dreaming of!

We love traveling and meeting new cultures, especially when we are given the chance to truly experience and live them on our skin. We would love to find new experiences for us to grow as people and share beautiful memories together.

What else ...

We love theatre, dancing bachata and salsa, animals, nature, children, and the joy that all of this transmits to us. We have been traveling quite a lot before and we have been sharing spaces with other people/families in our previous experiences abroad. We consider ourselves respectful and polite people, with good communication skills. We believe the key to living in peace is always being kind and respectful of other people, everything can be talked through with the right manners.
